Sounds like some 32-bit dynamic link library (DLL) that may have been deleted when another program that uses the same DLL got removed. You may need to reinstall Windows (it's not as bad as it seems - there is an option to repair an installation that has gone Tango Uniform.) Some software companies will furnish this updated DLL on installation.
Be sure to turn off any firewall or anti-virus software before installing as well - you could end up with a corrupted installation.
It may be looking for WSOCK32.dll, which should be in your C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM folder
