If IE 5.5 was part of ME, would it be listed in the add/remove control?
Does anyone know how to remove it if it is not listed so that I can install version 6.
I won't be going to the charity for a week (40 mile drive) so I would like to have any tools I need
to fix the problem.
Of course the computer was a donated computer and they do not have any of the driver software or
even the OS disks and they do not have but one other computer on the Internet with a dial-up
connection.

There was no VXD file listed. It stated only "Windows has a problem, you may use Clt+Alt+Del to
restart the computer or press any key to return. Error code 06:0028:000000B"
Outlook Express will open, MS Word will open, a least 4 of the games and educational programs will
open. Just Internet Explorer causes the error immediately upon attempting to open.

Without the full blue screen error (which will likely have mentioned a VXD file - a direct
pointer to the cause of the problem) then all I can advise is the most common cause of the
problem - modem drivers or video drivers. Update/reinstall both.

I was checking out an old Windows ME PC at a charity, and every time I attempt to Open IE, I get
the Blue Screen with the statement that it has an Error Code 06:0028:0000000B. I was able to
open OE and found that was version 5.5. I then attempted to update with an MS IE 6 CD. About
2/3 rd of the way through the installation, the same Blue Screen. Tried to continue the
installation and got the same error code.

With the error message it tells me I can press Ctrl+Alt+Del to shut down or press any key to
continue. There is no other information of the screen. Pressing any key returns the computer
to the desktop and normal operation.

Doing a Google, on this error code I found lots of example with other programs, but not with IE.
Most comments seem to suggest a video driver problem. Other than this error code when
attempting to open IE, the machine works fine. The charity does not plan to use the computer
for Internet Access, but they have a new educational program they would like to install, that
claims to requires IE 6 for installation.

The computer has never been on the Internet since I reformatted and set it up for them one year
ago, so I do not suspect virus or malware, but I will be checking it further on the 14th of
April. Any tips or suggestions would be appreciated. They use this computer for games to
entertain, and programs to train mentally challenged adults.
