Hyperlinks to Open New Windows Do Not Work in IE6

[troteris]

I have 2 problems.
1. Hyperlinks to Open New Windows Do Not Work in IE6
2. When I click Find tab in IE6
I get error Incompatible version of RPC stub.

Wndows 98

Any Idea what is it?

The first problem may be caused by a pop-up stopper.
The second problem has the following solution:

How To: Fix "Error 35: Incompatible Version of the RPC Stub"

This error occurs when trying to use the "Find" function with Internet Explorer. It is caused by a fault in v3.50.5041.0 OLEAUT32.DLL. Replace it with an earlier version to fix the problem. Since it is a system file, you will have to replace it using DOS. Copy the older version to C:\. Then go to the start button and restart your computer in MS-DOS Mode.
Once in DOS Mode, type the following (no quotes): "copy C:\OLEAUT32.DLL C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM\OLEAUT32.DLL". When asked if you want to overwrite, type "Y". It will then say "1 file copied". Then restart your computer (alt+ctrl+del or you can just load windows by typing "win" at the DOS screen).

Thank you very much for your help.
Your advice helped me to remove
two problems. On the way I removed
couple errors caused by coping
the file OLEAUT32.dll. This is
a system file and should be replaced in
another way. I just forgot.
Anyway now my IE6 works
properly and I appreciate your
Help.

Error 35: Incompatible Version of the RPC Stub

Hi
Changing the file OLEAUT.DLL I got
two errors
1. Error loading c:\Windows\bxxxs5.dll a device
attached to the system is not functioning

2. The file OLEAUT.DLL is out of date. This program
requires a new version

As a result several key applications (including Netscape 7)
not working.

I’ve reinstalled Windows 98 but it did not help to
resolve situation.

Any idea what to do?
