build a bogus apphelp.dll
borland c++ source
---BEGIN APPHELP.C---
#include <windows.h>
__declspec(dllexport) BOOL ApphelpCheckShellObject(
REFCLSID ObjectCLSID,
BOOL bShimIfNecessary,
ULONGLONG* pullFlags
)
{
return FALSE;
}
---END FILE---
then build it with
bcc32 -WD apphelp.c
copy it in a path directory
it work on windows 2000 no problem so far with this fix.
msdn has been quite usefull to know what this function basically do.

I found a number of EXEs and DLLs that Dependancy Walker show as
requiring the missing APPHELP.DLL. As a bit of humor, open DEPENDS.EXE
in Windows 2000 with IE 6; you will find some flagged DLLs that can't
find APPHELP.DLL
Thanks for having this site accessable; it helped track down the same
problem in one of our products also.

Report this to Microsoft. Not a PHP bug -> bogus.

It seems that I have narrowed down the problem. The culprit does seem
to
be IE6. I did the same installation on a Win2000 machine with IE5.5
instead on IE6, and the install came clean, including the
dependencies.
IE6 seems to put in a dependency on a file which belongs to XP; why it
doesn't break other apps is a mystery, but that's M$.
I'm definitely paying the price for not following my own advice about
putting a new version of a microsoft product on my system before the
2nd SP.

there's no dll in the binary package which is directly dependent upon
that
dll. where did you get that info from?

There is a dependency in certain modules (notably php_openssl) on
apphelp.dll. This file seems to only be available on WindowsXP (and the
file shipped with XP won't work on win2000). If I am correct (I'm not
entirely sure), any use of this dll will render the extensions useless
on any windows version prior to XP).
Source: DLL Help on MSDN. (The file is only listed as part of Windows
XP).
