ME-IE errors on comcast email

[bluecat1]

I have Windows ME with IT 6.0, Spybot and PC-cillin and use Comcast as a server. If I try to access Comcast email using IE, I get an error message saying IE will close. Do I want to tell MS? Do I want to restart IE? I downloaded Opera as a browser and can access the email this way but despite hassles, I like IE better and find the error messages annoying.

I tried repairing IE. I downloaded the latest updates for ME including the IE Service Pac for ME. When I did this I was not able to install all files. I got the message some were missed. I have added Comcast to the don't block list in Tools-Internet Options. I have tried clicking on the email icon and pressing Ctrl--a suggestion. When my PC-cillin was updating I saw a Windows related error that seemed at the time to effect nothing. My Pc-cillin was reporting MS02-039 SQL Resolution as a virus it later couldn't find. Trend Micro suggested MS updates but this didn't help.

Is it as easy as un-installing IE6.0 and then re-installing it through Opera? Would it help if I disabled my PC-cillin or Spybot, tested, and then re-installed them? Could I have blocked my own email by allowing either Spybot or PC-cillin to kick it out? I'd appreciate any ideas. Thanks!

I downloaded IE eradicator and then re-installed IE 6.0. I got the message %1%2 Windows could not upgrade the file %1 from 2%. Windows could not upgrade one or more fules before starting. Windows may not run properly. Then an error occured in the setup C:\Windows\System\browseui.dll and then another error C:\Windows\System\wininet.dll. After than another error VMM(12) + 00003759 Error:0E:0028:C0282759 and VMM(12)+00003755 Error:0E:0028:C027155.

What might I do next?

I saw the icon for IE for a minute or so prior to the report of some errors, and after that, nothing.

Thanks for any help.

I ended up fixing what I wanted to fix. I un-installed IE 6.0 (after re-installing it) or tried to and didn't get a clean un-install but took what I got, went back and installed IE 6.0 once again and then downloaded the 6.0 updates. In the end I still got the one error message ... windows could not upgrade the file %1 from %2 ... but I'm presuming until I find out otherwise that this is not a crucial file.

I would advise anyone who downloads IE eradicator that although a free download, if you run into hassles, you have to locate your answers from the FAQs or pay for support. I finally plunged forward because I felt the problem was still with Internet Explorer and not with IE eradicator.

Firefox and Thunderbird would be your best and safest bets.
