Tony- The numbers are in the form: major version.minor version.build number.sub-build number
This is what the versions are for various versions of XP 6.00.2600.0000 Internet Explorer 6 (Windows XP) 6.00.2800.1106 Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1 (Windows XP SP1) 6.00.2900.2180 Internet Explorer 6 for Windows XP SP2 Your second example matches one of my XP machines that was just upgraded to SP2 and has had no other IE patches applied (yet) http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=164539 -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Anthony Crawford Sent: Tuesday, October 11, 2005 3:05 PM To: [email protected] Subject: [ActiveDir] Different Versions of Internet Explorer We have a web based application that is behaving slightly different depending on the users version/patches of Internet Explorer. I was wondering if someone would shed some light as to what the numbers mean under "Version". I understand it is Version 6.0 but what do the subsequent numbers mean? I also understand under Update Version those are probably patches that have been applied. For example, Computer One works fine and this is what is listed under Help - About Version: 6.0.2800.1106 xpsp2.503001-1526 Cipher Strength: 128 bit Update Version: SP1; Q818529; Q330994; Q828750; Q832894; Q837009; Q823353; Q867801; Q903235 Computer Two is having the issue and this is what is listed under Help - About Version: 6.0.2900.2180 xpsp_sp2_gdr.050301-1519 Cipher Strength: 128-bit Update Version: SP2 The main difference between the two is Computer One has been on the network for some time and thus has quite a few security patches whereas Computer Two is new and only needed a few patches. The problem seems to be on the new workstations. Thanks.
