Re: Uninstalling IE 6.0

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



So far as I know, the only way to uninstall and reinstall IE6 and clear
its settings is to reinstall Windows and then reinstall IE6 and all of
the updates to everything. That's a pretty big step and should be a last
resort. What is the nature of the problem you're having?

I have a settings issue that is driving me crazy whenever I go to use my
yahoo email account. Yahoo suggests that I have a corrupted IE 6 browser and
that I should reinstall it. I tried doing so today, but the settings from my
previous installation (or whatever else is causing my problem) are still
present. How do I completely remove IE 6.0 from my computer so I can install
a truly fresh copy?
I'm running Windows 2K Professional as my OS. I've looked at Remove
Programs in the Control Panel, but I don't see IE 6 listed. I tried to
remove it as a Windows component, but that made no difference either. Can
anyone help??
