If you placed them in system32, registered them, (ie regsvr, then) and they don't take perhaps you have some malware preventing success. I suggest you run updated scans of AdAware (and Spybot if necessary) in order to rid yourself of any offending software. Once you know you are clean from malware and viruses, then retry; if doesn't work try it in Safe Mode. If doesn't work run, (from Safe Mode), this command (from Start/Run):
sfc /scannow (note the space after the "c")
You may also want to prevent all programs, except for your firewall, from starting at reboot. Do this by entering the (Run) command msconfig, go to Startups tab, uncheck all but firewall, Apply, Ok, reboot.
btw, I couldn't send you 1 of those files since I have only Home Edition of XP
