krick Posted March 26, 2005 Share Posted March 26, 2005 I wasn't clear in my subject for this post but I was suggested that this might be added to the next major version of the Unofficial 98SE Service Pack.There's a page on the Microsoft site that offers downloads to "tweak" IE5...Web Accessories for Internet Explorer 5 http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/previo...ss/default.mspxIt's an old page but the downloads still work, even with IE6.There's 4 downloads on the page.

Acheron Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 Cool link for IE7 compatibility, thank you for that.However it's only mentioned to be used on the server that hosts your files. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erpdude8 Posted March 28, 2005 Share Posted March 28, 2005 It will be very cool if IE 7 will be integrated in next version.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>integrated in the next version of the 98se SP? NEVER going to happen Tihiy!Besides, IE 7 is XP SP2 compatible only. forget it! IE7 is for XP and Longhorn systems.Read this article by Paul Thurrott on IE7 Preview 1:http://www.winsupersite.com/reviews/ie7_preview_1.aspIE7 isn't going to be Win2000 compatible either. what a darn shame for them too.

Sheesh! When MS makes the final release of IE7 they will only make it xp-compatible.I got confused on the main topic in this thread titled "Possible Additions For The Next Major Version" Uh yeah like next major version of WHAT? Whoever started this topic needs to be more specific on the title. next major version of IE? next major version of the Win98se SP? Be clear on what the subject will be here.

erpdude8 Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 I wonder if Tihiy can implement the Background Intelligent Transfer Service [bITS] feature that is included in Windows 2000, XP & Server 2003 onto a Windows 98 & Millennium system.BITS is what makes Internet Explorer resume interrupted downloads.Background Intelligent Transfer Service (BITS) FAQ page:http://www.microsoft.com/technet/community...s/bits_faq.mspxBITS can also resume downloads at the V5 Windows Update site:http://v5.windowsupdate.microsoft.com/The V5 Windows Update site only works with Windows 2000, XP & Server 2003.Windows 98 & ME users attempting to go there will be redirected to the V4Windows Update site.when I downloaded a file in IE6SP2 on my WinXP SP2 system then I stop it halfway, then I selected the file that I had stopped downloading, it picked up where it left off. Tried that on my old Win98se system with IE6SP1 and it did NOT resume downloading the file. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tihiy Posted March 29, 2005 Share Posted March 29, 2005 I think this thread is about Unofficial Service Pack.BITS=no. thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
