Sounds like you have at least two unconnected problems.
For OE:
From
http://www.fjsmjs.com/OE/directdb.htm
Errors in DIRECTDB.DLL or MSOE.DLL generally indicate corruption in the
message store.
Start by moving Folders.dbx to an empty Windows folder (with OE closed).
Note: the DBX files are hidden in Win2K, WinXP and Win2K3. You will lose
your folder hierarchy and the lists of newsgroups on the news servers, but
it might get you into OE.
If that doesn't do it then move all of the DBX files to the same folder as
Folders.dbx (again with OE closed). You should now get into OE. Try
importing the messages from
the folder you moved the DBX files to. If you can't, you can use this
tool
to extract the messages:
DBXtract ($5):
http://www.oehelp.com/DBXtract/
Note: It can take a long time (days with really large folders).
The messages can then be dragged from the Windows folder back into a
folder
in an open instance of OE.
For Script errors:
1. You might want to refresh your scripting engine:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/downloads/list/webdev.asp
Windows Script 5.6 for Windows 2000 and XP
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...43-7e4b-4622-86eb-95a22b832caa&DisplayLang=en
Sometimes there's a corrupt file in the cache and one must go to Tools |
Internet Options and click Delete Files.
2a. Start>Run>Regsvr32 vbscript.dll
2b. Start>Run>Regsvr32 jscript.dll
(WinXP users who have problems with 2a and 2b, see
http://www.mvps.org/archive/inetexplorer/answers_9.htm)
3. Re-register all DLLs listed in

5a. IE Tools>Internet Options>Advanced>Browsing>Enable third-party browser
extensions (uncheck & reboot).
5b. Find the hijacker that caused 5a to be checked (or if none were
checked,
check for hijackware anyway):
