OK, I'll follow your advice since you definately seem to know what you are
doing.

Here are existing value (before any new changes) of the registry keys:
HKCR\Folder\shellex\contextmenuhandlers
= {969223c0-26aa-11d0-90ee-444553540000}
= PropertiesPlus
= VirusScan
= WinZip

HKCR\Directory\shellex\contextmenuhandlers
= ACShell
= EncryptionMenu
= Offline Files
= Sharing
= VirusScan
= WinZip
= ZipGenius5

I wonder which one is the culprit (time will tell).

For the record, I think the hundreds of DLLs that SFC wants is due (maybe)
to the fact a month ago I changed all the dates on the machine to a single
date using setfiledate. Otherwise, I don't know why SFC is asking for so
many files (hundreds). BTW, SFC is a really really really dumb program.
After OK'ing a few hundred of these "Windows File Protection" dialogs,
you'd think it would have an "ok for all" button. But noooooo ....
