I am getting this error message on my windows XP pro PC.

Explorer.exe -Application error : The application failed to initialize
properly (0xc0000022). Click on OK to terminate the application

I saw a posting stating that I need to up?
date the PC. However, from the safe mode I cannot run update. And when I
boot normally, I got above error.

What should I do ?

Thank you in advance.

I did boot from "safe mode with network" before. When I tried to update it,
I encountered an error:
"The websire has encountered a problem and cannot display the page you are
trying to view. The options provided below might help you solve the problem."

thanks
