Oleaut32.dll

Lately, in trying to run the Access part of Microsoft Office 2000, I get an error message stating "OLEAUT#@.DLL out of date. Require newer version. I check the version that I have now and it's v 2.20.4118. My computer is a Compag Presario, about 8 years old. What's the solution to this problem, if there is one? Hopefully I won't have to mess with any of the system files. My knowledge about computers is very limited.
Thanks for your help.

do a search on google for that file..
you'll find about 10 different pages that will let you down load a newer version
