MDGx Posted February 22, 2005 Share Posted February 22, 2005 Can some one upload browseui.dll, browselc.dll and shdocvw.dll for Internet Explorer 5.5 Service Pack 2 (KB867282), I dont have winme, so cannot get these files.No need. You can d/l the MS fix here [MS IE 5.5 SP2 Patch for Windows ME]:http://www.mdgx.com/ietoy.htm#BROThen open it in PowerArchiver or WinZip:http://www.mdgx.com/toy.htm#ZIPto extract the files.

error_404 Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Why not insert some enhancements like:LSPFix, WinSockFix, PrcView, Extended WinIPCfgThey are small apps and help for cleaning from some ad-spy apps that modify reg entries (LSPFix+WinSockFix), they are useful to kill some processes (PrcView) and to add more functions to WinIPCfg.

erpdude8 Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 I see that, but I was saying that after installing the 2 - 5.5 files, I was asked again to dl the security update, in which one of the 2 files would end up replaced again....so I was talking about having to REINSTALL KB867282....vicious circle though, eh?<{POST_SNAPBACK}>who cares if WU asks you to reinstall the KB867282 patch. I don't give a ****.so just don't pay attention to WU if you already installed the KB867282 update.If I myself already know I installed that update, replace the two files you mentionedand then visit WU and it tells me to install KB867282, I IGNORE WU because Ialready installed the security patch. I'm smarter than that!nah error_404. may want to include the enhancements you suggested intoTihiy's Revolutions pack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erpdude8 Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 for those who are wondering if Microsoft will ever release a new standalone version of Internet Explorer. There WILL be an IE7 but it will be compatible with WinXP SP2 only.see Paul Thurrott's Supersite for Windows article on IE7:http://www.winsupersite.com/reviews/ie7_preview_1.aspread 'em and weep boys! fat chance of IE7 working under Win9xME, 2000 and NT4.

Acheron Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 erpdude8, there are some alternatives. However Internet Explorer 6 will still be supported by Microsoft when IE7 comes out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erpdude8 Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 IE6 SP1 for Win98/ME will still be supported by MS until june 30, 2006. no moresecurity patches for IE6 SP1 under Win98/ME will be made after that date.IE6 SP1 for Win2k sp3-sp4/xp sp1 will be supported until MS abandons supportfor Win2k sp3/sp4 and WinXP Sp1. Win2000 is supported 'til june 30, 2010.Luckily I have Firefox 1.01 (just released yesterday), Mozilla 1.75 and Opera 8.0 beta 1installed on my brother's xp machine and on my WinME machine. Mozilla 1.76 willbe out soon and so will the beta releases of Firefox 1.1 and Mozilla 1.8. Check theMozilla.org site on upcoming releases. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tihiy Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 Actually i believe Windows 9x/Me and 2000 use same IE6 SP1 code. So after 2006 security patches for IE6 SP1 for 2000 will be compatible with w9x/me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erpdude8 Posted February 25, 2005 Share Posted February 25, 2005 not really Tihiy. Windows 9x/Me and Windows 2000 do NOT use same IE6 SP1 codewith some IE6 SP1 files. look in the iew2k_1.cab, iew2k_2.cab and so on files andlook in the ie_s1.cab, ie_s2.cab and so on files. you'll see what I mean.Why do Win98/ME users get "hanging" problems with IE6 Sp1 when deleting a verylarge number of files in Windows Explorer?And why do Win2000 users NOT get "hanging" problems with IE6 Sp1 when deletinglarge number of files in Windows Explorer.and besides, jasinwa, the IE 5.5 sp2 browseui.dll file version 5.50.4807.2300 hasPLENTY of security flaws. I don't use that one if I were you. I get browseui.dll filefrom the 'other' KB867282 update (the IE 5.5 Sp2 kb867282 patch). The newerbrowseui.dll file from IE 5.5 Sp2 kb867282 update is version 5.50.4948.700 andfixes a lot of security bugs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tihiy Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 In setup files - maybe; but latest cumulative updates files for IE6 SP1 are fully compatible with 98 and 2000. Windows 9x is limited by nature, and memory leaks are fatal for it, but 2k not - that's the point for hanging. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erpdude8 Posted February 26, 2005 Share Posted February 26, 2005 The latest cumulative IE 6 SP1 updates have the same files for Win98, 2000, ME, NT4 & XP SP1BUT the Win2k/XP SP1 version of the IE6 SP1 KB867282 update uses a vastly differentsetup file (update.exe) to install IE6 SP1 files AND the update will no longer appear inthe IE6 SP1 'About' dialog box. The Win98/ME version of the IE6 SP1 KB867282 update usesieupdate.exe to install the files and does display the update in the IE6 SP1 dialog box.See question 'Why are the command line installation switches different for Windows 2000 and Windows XP operating systems for this release when compared to MS04-025: Cumulative Security Update for Internet Explorer?' by expanding the 'Frequently asked questions (FAQ) related to this security update' section of security bulletin MS05-014:http://www.microsoft.com/technet/security/...n/MS05-014.mspxAlso see the 'Security Update Information' section of that article and expand all details.But least the updated files are exactly the same (meaning binarily identical) for IE6 SP1for both versions of the updates.Reading MS article 867282: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/867282if you want the IE6 SP1 update to install the 'RTMQFE' version of the updated filesadd this registry entry in Registry Editor:HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\QFEInstalledQFEInstalled should be a DWORD value and set it to 1. If QFEInstalled is set to 0 ordoes not exist, the IE6 SP1 update will install the 'RTMGDR' version of the updatedfiles. If it is 1 or higher than the update will install the 'RTMQFE' version.

superscotty19 Posted March 17, 2005 Share Posted March 17, 2005 Hi,This is my first time posting, so I want to make sure I say this first and say it good: This service pack project is THE BEST thing to happen to ANY M$ product EVER. I've been using it for client PC builds and it has helped build my company. Thanks to this pack, I can actually rollout "reliable" M$ systems.Now that I've said that, I have noticed one thing that makes my users hesitant to stick with 98SE+SP vs. the XP beast. It simply boils down to aesthetics - "XP is prettier" is the common thread. My thinking is that since this is a +1 upgrade, it would be cool if one of the major features was an enhanced interface. In the world of funky shells, many programs are doing this - XP with its huge buttons, WindowBlinds (at a cost of course) to 98, and of course KDE with Linux. I like the idea of the animated "98SE" splash screen at boot, but I would really like to see the entire shell improved. btw - The theme of Windows2000 is a great start.Keep up the unbelievable work!-Scott.

krick Posted March 22, 2005 Share Posted March 22, 2005 It simply boils down to aesthetics - "XP is prettier" is the common thread.*steps up on soapbox*Personally, I think the XP UI looks like a f**king clown car. Who thought that purple, orange, blue, red, and green was a good color scheme? Hell, while they were at it, they should have thrown in some fuschia. It sure couldn't make it uglier. And what's up with the ridiculously large window close, minimize, and maximize controls?*steps down* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredledingue Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Superscotty19Give them a pre-build appearence sheme that looks nice (even no SP needed for that).I made myself a sheme with peach windows, and gree-blue to dark-blue fade away in the title bar.Then I installed Eppie and I added my nicely colored self-made control buttons.It looks terrific. I even didn't install the 2000 themes from the SP.You can also give the opposite effect by selecting "High Contrast White" or "High Contrast Black" sheme. Check also Tihy's Revolution Pack. Sounds promising... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fredledingue Posted March 24, 2005 Share Posted March 24, 2005 Why do Win98/ME users get "hanging" problems with IE6 Sp1 when deleting a verylarge number of files in Windows Explorer?It's hanging only when you use M$ Explorer. For that reason, you must use an alternative file manager and the problem is solved. (I use Explorer2 Lite) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
