- uninstalling internet explorer 97 and intalling internet explorer
- Posted by puzzled mark on July 3rd, 2004
I have had an XP level maching for two years now. The XP was installed when I got it and probably had internet explorer 6. However, I installed my old Office 97 and seem no longer have the original internet explorer 6. Until recently I was able to use the browser from YAHOO! but really prefer internet explorer 6. I recently changed ISP services I was able to download internet explorer 6 from the site but can't seem to uninstall internet explorer 97. For some reason the roadrunner software keeps selecting the old internet explorer 97 and it just doesn't run right. Thoughts?

Please explain exactly what you mean? I've just installed Office 97 on a
secondary XP machine and it didn't alter IE in the slightest.

You're correct, when I read your mail and checked, the component that is from Office 97 is Outlook. But it is true that my outlook is now 97 (it came with 6 I'm sure) and I can't get 97 out and 6 back, even though I downloaded outlook 6 recently.

There is no such thing as "Outlook 6" - you're confusing it with Outlook
/Express/. The latter is part of the OS, and is *NOT* altered in any way,
shape or form by Outlook (which is part of the Office suite). In fact,
Outlook does not touch OE - they are two separate entities and bear no
similarities to each other in the slightest (other than they both have
'Outlook' in their names and they can be used to send and receive email).
If you have an issue with Outlook /Express/ may I suggest you post in an
Internet Explorer group, as it is part of that rather than Office?

Hey Miss Prick,
You may not know this but there was a time when Microsoft used to bundle IE with
almost all products including Office 97. In fact rumour was that there were
more CDs containing IE than actual PCs in the whole world. CDs were given away
with magazines and also bundled with all MS products.
Although Puzzled said "Internet Explorer 97" he/she must have actually meant IE4
bundled with Office 97. We should not pick on silly things when we are dealing
with people in dire straight looking for solutions. Use of common sense in
interpreting questions would avoid unnecessary confrontation.
America is on Holiday today and most probably tomorrow; Greece will have
unscheduled holidays until the Olympics starts sometime in August because the
are the EURO 2004 Champions. They have defeated FRance, CzechRepublic, and
Portugal twice over in their own country. are you from Czech Republic by any
chance?
17 years old Russian is the Women's Wimbledon champion!!!
Having said all this, Puzzled needs to reinstall IE6 if it has been over written
by IE4 altough/but I shouldn't think this has happened. He could try
Repair/Install of IE6 using the instructions given in kb318378:

Hopefully this would resolve our Puzzled customer's problem

Hey, FW! I have Office 97 here and I can tell you categorically that it does
NOT contain any version of IE or OE. Suggest you get your facts right before
putting fingers to keyboard. I'm actually surprised your left hand ever
ventures above your waist!

You have not checked your entire set of CDs. This is very common with women
suffering from menopause. Age does get the better of life! So the facts have
gotten right and fingers to keyboard were in the right place pressing th right
boobs. As to left hand, no it does not ventures above waist. It has been blown
apart during the first gulf war.
Have you thought of getting a medical advice for your menopause. HRT may be a
solution, temporary though it may be.

PMFJI this fascinating discussion, but if you look in the ValuPack, it does
have IE version 3.x.
