Open Internet Properties, on the General tab, click Settings, View
Objects, and see if HeartbeatCtl Class is listed. If so, right-click
it, click Repair. If not listed, it's so damaged it has a numeric
name. Right-click each one, click Properties. If it's a Codec, leave
it there, but others that are unidentifiable can be removed. Then
reenter the Zone for a fresh install.

With XP, the Zone install is included in Add/Remove Programs, Windows
Components, listed in the left column. But if the problem is a damaged
Heartbeat install, I doubt removing and reinstalling the Zone will clear
it up. Here are other things to try:

I've never been able to find Microsoft Gaming Zone as
part of the Windows component. I'm running XP Pro.
Whenever I have to uninstall the zone I always get
the "is use" for some of the zone components. Those
aren't even removal from the dos prompt. I've never been
able to remove that "Windows" directory that comes in as
part of Microsoft Gaming Zone. I'm not sure you ever
need to but even if you uninstall "Microsoft Gaming Zone"
it stays in the program files because that component is
maintained.
