Message: A required dll file. Olepro32dll.was not
found error could not load custom controls.dll then

Search "Olepro32.dll"; Windows 98; Full Text; Exact Phrase; does come up
with a page full. However, I'm not sure I see anything useful there.

Olepro32.dll an IE file. Therefore...

(1) "START, Run, MSInfo32, Tools menu, IE Repair Tool"
It produces a rather large "Fix IE Log.txt" in C:\Windows. IE & E
are basically one & the same. If this crashes, an over-install of IE is
indicated.

(2) Over-install IE. Try first without, but I believe it will request an
internet connection. Perhaps it is best to let it connect, actually. If
you don't care to get this fancy, just skip to step (c).

(a) Turn off interfering programs. Use http://www.pcmag.com/ 's
"StartupCop" or "EndItAll2". Or "START, Run, MSConfig, Startup tab".
Note what is unchecked, if anything. Then, go to the General tab &
disable the entire Startup Group, by clicking "Selective.." & unchecking
"Load Startup...". Reboot.

(b) Perhaps, if you haven't got EndItAll2, then "Ctrl-Alt-Del" & end
task all but Explorer & Systray. If this goes badly, start again from
top, & skip it next time.

(c) "START, Find, F/F, IE6Setup.exe". Click it in the Find window.
NOTE: If you are IE5, then it's "IE5Setup.exe". If there are more
than one (I have two each), click the one in "C:\WINDOWS\Windows
Update Setup Files" or "C:\Windows Update Setup Files", as applicable.

(d) Re-enable the Startup Group. That will automatically check all
items. Go to the Startup tab & uncheck any noted in step (a). Reboot.

(e) Perhaps go to Windows Update, to see whether it now offers
criticals.

Not that you need them for this, but can it be they are on your hard
drive...?...

"START button, Find, F/F, Win98*.cabs".

If 55 of them show up, then you will not need the CD. Also, check for
Setup.exe in the folder that contains those .cabs.

Ad-Aware usually keeps backups of what it removes, by default. Start Ad-Aware and
click "Open Quarantine-list" to see the backed-up files and entries.

One easy way to get olepro32.dll and its related library files, is to install Visual
Basic 6.0 run-time libraries from the link in this article:

VBRun60sp6.exe installs Visual Basic 6.0 SP6 run-time files:
