You have to download few run time files very often and don't use a lot of software other than what came with your computer.

1) Visual Basic 6.0 Run-Time Files:
For Windows many programs are created in Visual Basic, a programming language. They require common Visual Basic runtime files [usually DLLs] which are not always included in the download because they are shared by many programs.
VB runtime libraries include - ADVPack.dll, W95Inf16.dll, W95Inf32.dll, VBRun60.inf, Msvbvm50.dll, Oleaut32.dll, Olepro32.dll, Stdole2.tlb, Asycfilt.dll, Comcat.dll.

5) Registering DLL & OCX Files:
If a DLL [Dynamic Link Library] or an OCX [ActiveX] file is reported as not being registered with Windows, even though you know you have a copy in your C:\Windows\System folder, get Regunreg.exe, a 32kB utility which can register, or un-register, both DLL and OCX system files.
OR You can download the dll and ocx files from the following URL and paste it under the system directory. In addition you can even download VBX, VXD, OCX, INF, SYS, DLL•

I recommend you to download all the above run time files to avoid most common error messages. Prevention is better than cure.
