Installing PDF Creator stops links working in IE and WINZIP context option lost in Explorer

After I installed PDFCreator (v0.9.8), I encountered the following strange behaviours:
1. Any LINKS exposed in my IE Toolbar (ie. visible in the browser) do not work as links, and when I select them, the PRINT dialog box is displayed. If I shorten the amount of the LINKS exposed (by dragging the boundary across) so that the links now need to be displayed by clicking the double arrow, they work fine.
2. In Windows Explorer, WINZIP options used to be displayed when I brought up the context menu (Right-click). These options have now disappeared, and an opion to run PDFCreator appears. I turned off the Shell integration for PDFCreator, turned the WINZIP integration option off then back on, then the PDFCreator context option disappeared, but the WINZIP one did not come back.

What the?????
