Do a search for ATL.DLL (there should be a copy in
Windows\ServicePackFiles\i386 & also one in the Windows\System32\ folder
Rename the one in System 32\ to ATL_old.DLL then copy & paste the one from
i386 into the System32\ folder.

An addendum to this thread: Check the system for spyware and viruses. A
rogue version of "atl.dll" has been showing up with some of these.
