This problem usually comes about when you have some DLL files with incorrect date stamps on them.
The solution is two fold. First, you need a program that will scan your system for files with bad date stamps, then you need a a program that will let you change them.
This is a link to a handy thread on the MozillaZine forums, and the second post contains links to programs that will do exactly what I described above.
