You definitely want to leave those out! You never want to distribute operating system core files with your app. Those files are core OS files
for 95, 98, NT and above. Replacing them will certainly crash the target system (and violate MS license agreements, those long winded agreements
that everyone just hits 'yes' to)

You were having problems with the OLEAUT and OLEPRO files, which you can redistribute. Updating them is tough with the PDW because it
itself was written in VB and uses them. If you manually include them in the wizard though, it should install them after rebooting the system.

HTH,
