Hi,
If you have SP2 on a CD, reinstalling SP2 should replace damaged or missing
files.
Or, you could uninstall SP2 and use several methods in this article:
318378 - How to Reinstall or Repair Internet Explorer and Outlook Express in
Windows XP: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=318378
But, *many* IE problems do not require a reinstall. What problems are you
having? Specifically, problems with spyware, trojans, etc. will survive a
reinstall of IE because they have infected other Windows files and
directories- not just IE.

Hope this helps,
