URGENT: ASP - Oracle connection - Still looking for 8i client files

I have a Windows 2000 machine (running IIS) which I upgraded from the
Oracle 8i client to the 10g client. I did the whole "Oracle
uninstall/reboot/manual file delete/manual registry editing/reboot"
game to remove version 8. I then installed the 10g client and
configured it so I can connect to the Oracle server in SQLPlus without
a problem.

However, now whenever I run an asp page on this web server which tries
to connect to the Oracle server with the following code (which had
worked fine for a long time with previous versions of the Oracle
client), the page just hangs indefinitely. When this happens, an error
comes up on the web server.

<%
Set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
objConn.ConnectionString = "driver={Microsoft ODBC for
Oracle};server=Acct3;UID=whatever;PWD=whatever;"
objConn.Open
%>

Inetinfo.exe - Unable to locate DLL
The dynamic link library orancrypt8.dll could not be found in the
specified path....C:\WinNT\System32....blah blah blah.....

Then I click OK, then the same error comes up again. I click OK one
more time, and then the asp page returns the error:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005)
[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]

Why is the webserver still looking for files from the Oracle 8 client?
I removed all the references from the registry, but it still seems to
be looking for some reason. Anyone have a suggestion? Thank you!
