We've seen this same problem caused by an older version of "wininet.dll"
that was installed after IE by another piece of software.  To fix the
problem do the following:

1) Rename wininet.dll to wininet.old
2) Reboot the system
3) Copy wininet.dll from a known good system into winnt\system32 (or
reinstall IE)
4) Reboot once again
5) Life should be good until the next time!

There are many versions of this file kicking around that can cause strange
problems.  It's amazing what software packages will install a newer/older
version of this file.  This was one of the common problems on machines that
installed IE4 Beta's and then tried to upgrade to the final.

Hope this helps!
