The reason you're having this problem is the file is loaded when Windows boots.
That's why this error is occurring, the file is in use. Give this a try, by replacing
the file from DOS.
Reboot the computer with a Win98 boot disk, select CD rom support when prompted.
Note which drive letter the CD is assigned. When you reach the A:\> prompt, place
the Win98 CD in the CD rom drive.
Now from the A:\> prompt, type EXT and press enter. The first prompt you see
will ask for the location of the CAB files, enter E:\Win98 (or the assigned drive
letter):\Win98 . Now follow the instructions. You need to extract SHDOCLC.DLL
to the C:\Windows\System directory.
Using Netscape when accessing AOL works better than using IE

Sounds like a DNS problem. To resolve, you will need a Win Me CD or have cab files on hard disk.
1. Go to Settings -> Control Panel -> Add/Remove Programs -> Windows Setup then click on Communications and select Details radio button. Uncheck Dial Up Networking.
2. Run Regedit and go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/System/CurrentControlSet/Services Right click on Winsock and Winsock2 and delete them.
3. Reboot computer.
4. Reinstall Dial Up Networking using same procedure as in step 1 except check box by Dial Up Networking. Follow prompts from there.
This procedure will remove and reinstall DNS.
A question: Did you remove adware or viruses prior to this happening?
