Hi Yvonne,
There are some terms being interchanged here, that shouldn't be, to avoid
confusion.
1. Windows, refers to the operating system installed on your computer.
There are many different versions of Windows, such as XP and Vista.
And to further complicate things the version of Windows currently in beta
is
called Windows 7.
2. Internet Explorer, commonly referred to as I E,is an internet browser,
used for accessing the internet.
There are several versions of I E, such as versions 6, 7 and 8.
Version 8, is the latest version.
3. Outlook Express, commonly referred to as O E, is an e-mail client,
used
for sending and receiving e-mail messages.
As Flor stated earlier, there is no version higher than 6, because
Microsoft
changed it and gave it another name.
HTH,

Dear Yvonne,
If you question is related to Internet Explorer 8, then the answer to
your
question is that yes it is a full version now. It will install over 7,
but
as is the case with earlier versions, you will not lose any of your
favourites or addresses.
