Re: Mine is fixed!

I too installed 896688 and suffered the broken html links in both
windows help & office 2000 help. (W2k SP4 IE6 SP1)
I tried OLE_fix.reg but this did not work.
What did work was this advice below, from torgeir which I found when
fixing this problem when another windows update broke the active X
links. ( I never tracked this one down, ended up uninstalling IE 6 &
re-installing)
Thanks torgier

Delete the "Compatibility Flags" value (if it exists) under
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\ActiveX
Compatibility\{ADB880A6-D8FF-11CF-9377-00AA003B7A11}

Then you have different issue.

To be honest, I think that's dangerous bull - sorry!
Why? Because you reenable the hhctrl.ocx control by deleting the
compatibility flag. That's a potential security hole! See e.g.
