It is possible that your system is lacking some up-to-date system
DLL's, if it's that ancient.  Installing a recent release of IE
would likely fix that -- if IE 5.5 runs, you're likely to have
very up-to-date system DLL's, and the IE installer sees to that
(or used to; not sure if IE 5.5's installer still works that way).
