I think I just got lost. Am I sure of what? That its gone - or that
nothing is happening? I dont find it in the programs, or arrrrgggggghhh
that brought up something -- I just went to start , search and found a lot
of mentions of I.E. clicked on a few of them, and just got pages of stuff I
had kept in folders. Then BINGO as the Europeans are want to say - Internet
Explorers main page came up on screen. I did a bit of punching and sure
enuff have a shortcut back on the desktop, and tested out and I got IE. I
dont know where it all went, but got er done.
Thanks for the quesiton - which stirred the gray matter.
With the lightning hit, Ive just been going in circles here trying to get
things back together.Apparently, IE is not a program that shows up on the
add/remove screen. As it was not there, I thougt I had removed it.
Again thanks
Danny

Are you sure. What I have is a 480 MByte file: IE Version 6.0.2800.1106
Back in early '06 I used it once for a customer who had wiped out his IE
user interface. Don't recall any unusual interactions, but my memory may
well be faulty.

Rob, that is what I also have been able to get from them. The
problem is
that when it is downloaded here, and I activate it, it dows not
follow
through with the complete program, but just sits here, saying its at
work -
forever-. Thanks for the offer, but someway, when I "erased" it
from the
computer, it did something so that it doesnt want to re-download.

Hi Danny,
Some time ago I went to the Microsoft Download site and downloaded
IE6setup to a CD. Don't know if it has all the executables you need or
if it goes back to the download center to get more stuff, but would be
happy to send a copy to you.

I am using Win2000Pro, and understood IE 7 wasnt built for that? I
dont
know why the problem when I try either ie5 or ie6, but when I
have
the
executable up and running, it goes to the MS site, says its
starting, then
just sits there, never completing the job. I eventually stop
it
(after an
hour or more), and I do have high speed download here. Once, I
even
left it
connected and supposedly downloading for 4 hours, came back and
it
was still
just sitting there. Its odd, because when I try to do it again,
it
comes
back and asks if I wasnt to continue, or start from the
beginning.
Doesnt
matter which I select, it still doesnt do anything.
At work, I had a complete copy I used there, without having to
do
the
playing around, but when I retired, I forgot to bring a copy
with
me. We
just got tired of dealing with that, for hundreds of computers.
I
suspect I
will be able to put the Win2000 disc back in, and get it from
there,
but
dont want to foul things up, being as I am down to just one
operating
computer here right now. Still waiting for a new hard drive for
the
family
computer - and want to keep one operational. HI.

Actually I don't think you can completely remove IE from your system.
There have been huge lawsuits over that but Microsoft claims
it is
an
integral part of the system and cannot be removed.
With WinXP+ you can hide the IE desktop Icon and make another browser
the default but you can't remove IE. Yes if you want to
download
IE 7
(It's a big improvement over IE 6 so I recommend you do that)
it
first gets a very small executable that I believe determines
what
parts of IE you need to download for your particular system
and
downloads only what you need. That works, and it minimizes
the
amount
of stuff you need to download. Why is that a problem?

NOT
using
IE at all? I have Firefox on the computer. Took IE off at

on,
I hit up
against the stupid way they want to upload to me, with a
small
program on
the computer that then reaches out and downloads the rest of
it.
It
appears
you have to have IE in order to get IE. Makes a lot of
sense!!
Even
when I
try to activate Firefox, then the setup, it seems to start,
then
just
sits
there without ever having done much, and have left it an hour
or
more to
no
affect. Have been trying to find a separate full copy of
IE,
but
eerywhere
I look it just want to upload the setup files, and that
fails
every time
I
try to use it. Using Win2000Pro here, and have tried IE5 and
6
both. If
I
misremember, 6 is for XP?
