I think so, but w2k may not include the most recent. One way to update is to
install IE6.0

If you are working on a script (logon script?) that needs to be run on all
workstations, you may or may not need the latest version. I'd suggest
setting up w2k and wxp machines as minimally as possible (include up to date
service pack and security patches, but install no apps or upgrades, then try
out your script.
