The documentation for enabling the RSA Database Security Manager adapter for SQL Server 2005 discusses the requirement for MDAC 2.8 to be installed.
Resolution

If your operating system is Windows XP then the MDAC components are already installed as part of the operating system.  If you attempt to install them (by running mdac_typ.exe) then the installation will stop informing you that installation is not required.

For instances where thr MDAC components are required; the software can be downloaded free of charge from Microsoft for valid Microsoft licensed users (for example http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=6c050fe3-c795-4b7d-b037-185d0506396c&displaylang=en)
