Go to http://www.microsoft.com/ie and download either ie5setup.exe or ie6setup.exe IE 5.5 is a bit down the page on the right side.
Save the file to c:\ie5 or c:\ie6 then click Start, Run then copy and paste the appropriate line from below. You must include the quotes for this to work!!! "C:\ie6\ie6setup.exe" /c:"ie6wzd.exe /d /s:""#E" "C:\ie5\ie5setup.exe" /c:"ie5wzd.exe /d /s:""#E" Go through the prompts like you're going to install and you'll get a box with checkboxes for each supported version of Windows. You'll then be prompted for where you want to save the files. There is one small "gotcha" with doing this. A few times while it's downloading, a box will popup asking if you want to "install" something. Check the check box and click Yes. It will not actually install! If you _don't_ check the box and click Yes then that component will not download. After it's done you can burn the folder to CD-R and have an Internet Explorer intaller CD. :) I don't know if it works with IE 5.02, not going to try becaue I have no reason to use that verion and don't know anyone who does. 5.5 is the last that works on Win95 and I think it tops out with Win2K. WinXP comes with IE6 (that command will download IE6 SP2) which also works with Win98 and newer, including Windows NT4. If you don't have broadband, it's probably a good idea just to download for the version of Windows you're running. I'm a glutton for punishment so I'm grabbing the whole lot in one go over a 56K modem. (Fortunately I just got an Actiontec PCI modem that is _not_ a "winmodem"! Has the Lucent 'Venus' chipset.) ===== "Work it harder make it better do it faster makes us stronger. More than ever hour after our work is never over."
