Broken Internet Explorer 6

jfko6 · 07-04-2008, 01:18 PM

As I tech in the field I often encounter broken or corrupted IE6. Cause:Unknown.

Problem: Can't use Microsoft Windows Update because of corrupted IE6.

I've seen scripts run by Microsoft to repair IE. I don't have those scripts.

Repairing Windows dose not repair IE.

Is there a link to download IE6 manually? And reinstall it?

Responses are appreciated.

Hello,

How to reinstall or repair Internet Explorer in Windows XP

Have you seen that article posted by Microsoft? It describes how to repair or reinstall IE6 on XP.

Cheers,
Mak

Thanks for the link to the article.

As I was scanning the article and looked at their procedures I say to myself: tried this, tried that, and did the other thing.

Anyways, there is at least one other procedure I can use.
Got a service call with an IE problem coming up so I'll refer back to this
article.

Thanks,
JFK

P.S. Installing Service Pack 3 manually did not fix the IE 6 problem on my previous try.
