Re: how to download IE6?

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

IE6 is an integral part of WinXP. If you reinstall XP, you will reinstall IE6. So archiving should be your only issue. What is there that you wish to archive other than your Favorites?

What is your OS? Did you ever have IE6? Some version comes with all Windows

I have XP, but I'm about to wipe the drive and reinstall from ground
zero.

I want to archive the complete IE6 prior to wiping the hard drive and
starting all over.

With all due respect, the link you gave is the same link I tried
earlier. IT DOES NOT download IE6. It downloads a 480K setup file,
which requires the internet connection in order to download and
install IE6 (after executing the setup).

This is not what i want............I can't be sure my computer will
come up with a working internet connection after the reinstall. So, an
internet dependent setup program is not OK.

Do I just convert to Netscape or is there an answer to this?

Thanks,
