Thanks for all of your comments. I do not want this to degenerate any more than it already has. So, let me stick to the essentials.

The names have changed, but its the same problem. Your LibXSLT.xs.dll is loading some libxslt.dll which does not have xsltApplyStylesheetUser (its the wrong version, wrong library). You say you verified with "dependency walker", so it must be a path issue.

As I mentioned in the OP, it is a clean install. There are _no_ other applications except the OS. A search on Windows for "*xslt*.dll" returns "libxslt.dll" and libexslt.dll -- both from C:\Strawberry\Perl\bin. I also mentioned that the error we get now is the "Can't locate the loadable module" error. If what you say is correct, I will still get the dialog box popping at me (which is not what is happening now). Perhaps, I am not following your point of view. Or perhaps you would be kind enough to elaborate a little more, or explain things differently.

Thanks (no, honestly),
Suresh.
