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?

I keep getting a pop up alarm when using Pathfinder: : An error has occured in the script on this page line 249 char 1 error object expected code 0 url ;database?callsign=(((callsign I have requested))))
No matter if I say to continue or not to continue to use the script- the web site comes up with the proper response information.

I have a similar problem with AWS Weatherbug. Whenever I go to the radar display and ask to enlarge or animate the display I get that script error. It's very strange because it doesn't matter whether I say continue or don't continue, it continues anyway and nothing seems to be wrong. It seems to be a Windows thing and thus far I haven't been able to track it down. If anyone has the solution I'lI be eternally grateful. However, I have not had any problem with QRZ.com and Pathfinder 4.4.6.

Errors in scripts can only come from the web page that Pathfinder is attempting to display. From the URL, Pathfinder is searching QRZ.com. The correct URL is {TargetCallsign} which is a bit different than what you show below.

Yeah I left a dot out of the url,in my email, but otherwise its the same one Dave. I do not get script errors on other sites thru Pathfinder, nor any direct search type sites. It only appears when using Pathfinder and QRZ.

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.

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?

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. Danny

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.
