I am trying to install Service Pack 1 for MS Internet Explorer 6 and it
comes back with error message "A previous installation has pending work
requiring a reboot. You need to restart your computer to complete that
installation before running internet explorer setup. Setup will now close.
I have rebooted, but this still comes up. I have tried to install windows
service pack 1 & 2 and get an "access denied" I was wondering if these two
were related errors.
