O.P. Problems with the XMLDOM
Hello there.

Strange to see me posting in the Tech Talk, uh? Well, I'd rather don't want to post here since when I do post here, it's because I'm in trouble. :P

Anyway, since yesterday or so, it seems that every time a program tries to initialize a "Microsoft.XMLDOM" object, it fails to create the object. This means that my Countdown Live fails to load its translations, to load the data from the ScriptInfo and many other scripts are broken too. This also occurs in web browser: in IE, the XMLDOM can't be created and in FireFox, the "document.implementation.createDocument" fails too. Messenger Plus! Live seems unaffected. (Probably because it uses another XML parser?)

So I tried some things and it seemed that the creation of "Msxml2.DOMDocument" (the new one) still works, but the "Msxml.DOMDocument" (the old one) doesn't. So therefore I assume that it's a version-dependent problem. Something must have broken a version of Msxml, but I have no idea how this can be. I think I had this problem before, but I have no idea how it was fixed then.

Has someone experienced this before? Can someone tell me how to re-install the XMLDOM properly? Or how to fix this?

Thanks in advance,

- Matti.
