2. Why can't the XP Fax Installation Program find the Installation
Files?

Not really. As the page suggests, you either need to uncompress the .dl_
files so they become .dll files, or use the Esentutl.exe utility to rebuild
to security database. To do this, click on the Windows Start Menu, click
Run, and type:

esentutl /p %windir%\security\database\secedit.sdb

%windir% is usually C:\Windows. You can also get the hotfix listed in KB

You cannot add a Windows component in Windows XP
