You can register them manually by executing:
python win32comext\axscript\client\pyscript.py
python win32com\servers\interp.py
python win32com\servers\dictionary.py

I suspect you will get the same errors tho.

I have no idea how this could just start happening recently.  My guess 
is that some other software updated some COM dlls.

See 
http://starship.python.net/crew/mhammond/win32/InstallationProblems.html 
- but this specifically mentions Windows 98.  I suggest you try and find 
a COM update from microsoft.com.
