Some of these should not be suggested to IE7 users.
Specifically, registering shdocvw.dll has caused an incompatibility with IE7
and mshtml.dll no longer has an entry point for DllRegisterServer
(which may make the error message disconcerting for users.)
The only reliable repair which seems to be left for IE7 is its Reset... command
and when mentioning it I always issue the caveat about what will happen to a
users AutoComplete data, especially saved passwords. ; )
