If nothing works - or only partially works, go to MotherShip for DLLs:

• This should fix all of your problems. Click now and read later. This is a big file (1.3 MBytes)
• Choose "Run this program...." after you click - and wait (13 Min at 14 KBaud) (6 Sec on ADSL)
• This program comes straight from MicroSoft.com (unless there's a broken link - in which case, try this - or this). 
• It is a Setup program - containing MSVBVM50.DLL and other famous Dynamic Link Libraries.
• It will painlessly install all of the required support for VB5 projects.
• You just have to click "Next" a few times - BUT - you may have to reboot your computer to complete the installation.

If you're nagged by wierd Security messages, turn off the Alerts

• On the Menu Bar, click View and then Internet Options... (at the bottom) - And move the popup window so you can read this.
• Click the "Security" Tab. (At the top of the popup box (next to "General"))
• Click "Custom" (the bottom Option bullet) and "Settings..." (the button next to it)
• In the next window, Enable all references to "ActiveX controls" (the top 5)
• CAUTION: You may not want to do this if you surf in hostile or invasive environments
• Go OK, OK, to get back to the browser
• Hit the "Refresh" button. No more nags?

If you have other strange problems, try the exotic:

• Flush your Cache
  • In Windows 98:
    Go to Start, Programs, Accessories, and System Tools.
    Click "Disk Cleanup" (at the top).
    Select the C: Drive (or whichever Drive Windows is on)
    Make sure "Temporary Internet Files" is ticked
    Go "OK" and "Yes", you're sure.
    In most Caches, this will delete needless and conflicting clutter.
  • In Windows 95:
• Uninstall "Downloaded Program Files"
  • In Windows 98:
    "Disk Cleanup" probably won't delete the CAB file that came with the opening page.
    Go to Windows Explorer (File Manger) and look in \Windows\Downloaded Program Files
    Hit F5 to unhide fresh files.
    If there's a file in there called Boink.BoinkCtl, highlight it, click File and Remove Program File
    If Acess is Denied, quit IE and try again
    If that didn't, reboot and try again
    If that didn't work, go for a walk in the park.
  • In Windows 95:
