It seems that rare problems with ADO connection
comes from broken MDAC. On some forums I Googled
the say that on 100 machines comes 2-3 with broken MDAC.

The solution for XPSP1 is simple, just reinstalling MDAC,
and that costs 5.5MB of free download. But for XP SP2
there must be some workaround with 'mdac.ini', installation
disks, etc ... and that's too much pain for most users if they
must do that by themesleves.

These are some links that may be useful if someone is interested:
