What a bloody mess! Ah man... shoot me in the head and make it painless. I was rushing around too quick yesterday to get a bunch of stuff done with the kids. Yeah, that's the excuse...
Time out, Rewind, Start Over...
I screwed up on the files BIG TIME. Yep. I got the two files mixed up.
6.0.2800.1276 10/16/03 1:34 PM 2,734 MB is the BAD boy. That is the file I DUMPED and replaced it with the older (version-wise) and younger (time-wise) 6.0.2734.1600.
Yes, on my system right now I have the "2734.1600" version and the Scrollbars work great. I got this file SECOND -- not as I initially stated. Microsoft must have modified the update and PULLED the faulty "2800.1276" file sometime after they initially released the update. They then replace with an older version that worked better.
I am going to look over all the posts and see if this NOW makes sense. Certainly, almost all WinXP users have confirmed that 6.0.2800.1276 is the bad file.
Also, the TechNet issue is NOT fixed by swapping the MSHTML files. A different DLL must be responsible.
Please ignore what I said above about the Registry settings. (I even have a stupid typo up there that I cannot change -- it should be Win2K-XP: Q824145.inf).
The settings that you find in your Registry should be dictated by the .inf file from the installation you used and NOT what I posted here. My assessment was incorrect because I screwed up the numbers...
Just to illuminate how hasty and stupid I was, MY REGISTRY has the 6,0,2800,1106 listings -- NOT the "newer" 6,0,2734,1600 numbers that I see in the more recently downloaded INF files.
I am going to review my data now and see what I come up with...
