Windows XP netsh error authfwcfg.dll

I was trying to add a firewall rule and every time I do I get

"The following helper DLL cannot be loaded: AUTHFWCFG.DLL"

I've tried searching online and they said to run the sfc /scannow. I did that and nothing has changed. I checked my system32 folder and I do not have AUTHPWCFG.dll.

I tried searching online to download authfwcfg.dll and so far I think all the versions I've seen are for Windows Vista or windows 7.

I tried searching for a windows XP version and I can't seem to find anything. Anyone see this issue before? Maybe I just need to download the version for windows XP?
 
Open an elevated command prompt and run this command:

sfc /scannow

Being XP you might want to have your installation CD handy if System File Checker asks for it. Don't download .dll files from the web, as it's a real security risk. The authfwcfg.dll is an XP system file.
