Well, it does in fact remove it from the OS (along with Outlook Express, which used to be in there alone), and fixes problems with password cacheing in the process when it’s then reinstalled. I thought it might be of use in your situation, too…

I know there’s a Control Panel – I said to look in it! The link in the Control Panel (which I couldn’t remember when I sent my last post) is called “Add or Remove Windows Components”. You can remove the check mark for Internet Explorer, click Okay, then go back in the same way and put the check mark back; this fixes many problems with that program.

The best idea I can offer is to reinstall Internet Explorer from the Cotrol Panel, Add/Remove Programs and the new Windows Setup (whatever it’s now called.) You can remove the check mark and then Okay all screens, then go back in and put the check mark back in, which cures many problems.

So you were able to partition the HD and install in an empty partition? It wanted to take the whole drive when I tried it, and it took me all afternoon to recover from the “Cancel installation” process. I had to re-install the video driver in the Win98 partition to keep it from phoning home…

Anybody who has details on how to accopmplish this feat, it will be much appreciated!

Try going into the control panel and whatever they call the Windows Setup now – there is an entry for Internet Explorer, which you can un-check, then Okay each screen. Go back in the same way and put the check mark back in – that ought to do it!

No, that was what I was looking for, all right.

Thanks!
