The XP SP 2 is kind of scary - but it should not make a difference unless some kind of "priviledge" prevents the update. Were you logged as administrator - does the "event viewer" tell you anything.

I have XP-SP-1. My "search" request for "comctl" shows two files:

C:\WINDOWS\system32\COMCTL32.OCX  4/15/2005 && SP-5 OCX (wrapper) update
C:\WINDOWS\system32\MSCOMCTL.OCX  4/15/2005 && SP-5 OCX (wrapper) update

There around 1.3w and 1.04 MB. The most recent prior to those are:
COMCTL.gid (from 2004)
and MSCOMCTL.OCX in my C:\WINDOWS\lastgood\system32, also from 2004.

Maybe you might need to restart in safemode as admin to install. It could be that some service is using it (I hope it's a legit one).

While you're in dsafe mode (command prompt - no networking), from you C:\ root enter the command DEL INDEX.DAT /S. These files atrack internet use. I would advise running a defrag (since the guys can be quite large and cannot be re-allocated during a "normal" startup mode defrag) after you delete the INDEX.DAT from you C drive.

HOWEVER - If your hosting an exploit or the reminants of some TOOLBAR virus are still grabbing clock - the deletion request will report "unable to delete files". There's a problem should a safe-mode admin log-in to the Command Prompt with no networking not allow you to delete all your files.

Take care of the exploit first - but in the end - you should have 2 OCX with "Tax Day" 2004 dates!
