Re: reinstall ie 6

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry



i run the help center it says i got a internet explorer error

If you're not connected to the internet, an error would not be uncommon.

Try the firmware upgrade. If no joy, try reinstalling the modem.

Also try:

1. Start > Run > (type in) ipconfig /flushdns (note the space) > [OK]

2. Start > Run > (type in) ipconfig /release > [OK]

3. Start > Run > (type in) ipconfig /renew > [OK]

4. Reboot.

No it is not a wireless deal. Shoot i am glad to here that you dont think
it is the xpsp2. the reason i thought it might be the sp2 is that everytime
i run the help center it says i got a internet explorer error.
today i was going to check Winlogon setting in my regedit at
local_machine\software\policies\microsoft\currentversion\winlogon well i do
not have a currentversion or winlogon when i click microsoft. this couldnt
be the problem could it?

Maybe i will try again to get my sfc /scannow working , would that help me
any?

I'd doubt it. It appears to be a network connection problem and the
Westell modem is the most likely source of the problem.

Are you connecting wirelessly? If so, does this behavior persist if you
connect directly to the modem?

The most recent firmware upgrade/update for your modem was released on 30
Jun-06. Even though you purchased the modem after that date, the firmware
upgrade may be required. See

I do NOT think that reinstalling IE will help but to do so, simply
uninstall WinXP SP2 via Add/Remove Programs, reboot *twice*, then
reinstall it, again rebooting *twice*.

NB: Your anti-virus application and any anti-hijackware applications'
real
time protections should be disabled throughout the process.

More questions:

Did you install (and then uninstall) IE7?

Do you connect via a router (including wirelessly) or directly to the DSL
modem?

Do you own the modem? How old is it?

What problems are you having that you think reinstalling IE would fix,
Larry?

Did you install SP2 or did WinXP SP2 come preinstalled on the machine
when
you bought it (i.e., late Aug-04 to today)?
