Thank you for your suggestion, but it didn't work. I tried it three times
and each time, I was prompted to re-boot after each try. The same problem
exists.

I have another PC with an identical setup and when I right-click on
LZ32.DLL, I can instantly access the file's properties. When I do the same
on the PC with the problem, it takes about 30 second after right-clicking
just for the little menu to appear. This certainly appears to indicate that
there is a problem with that file.

Of course, I have tried just copying that file from one machine to the
other, but when I try to paste LZ32.DLL into the C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32
directory, I just get a Cyclic Redundancy Check error message. Is there any
way to copy this file between the two machines?
