Will the Real IE6 SP1 Rollup Please Stand Up?

[fdv]

Okay, I give up.

Which contestant is the Real IE6 SP1 Rollup?

Is it...

Contestant One!

Contestant Two!

Contestant Three!

Contestant Four!

Contestant Five!

And on which rollup is this patch to be applied?

I see dates, but I see different file dates and contents within the installation packages.

Nice.

Like it's so mother f------ difficult for MS to release Internet Explorer 6.2. You know, because issuing what's fast approaching half a dozen cumulative updates is so easy for end-users.

(For the curious, one of my clients actually wants IE6, so I gotta figure this out and I'd ideally like an answer, perhaps it could benefit us all)

Seems it's easier to remove than to fix;)

[Martin Zugec]

There is.... IE6 SP2 is included in XP SP2

[nateklomp]

Ummm...you may not be aware that some of us use Win2k here...=)

He said IE 6.2 not IE 6 SP1++

Well, I got w2k on my network. I am using Detect Only method, so I exactly know what patches I need for my machines. Then I simply throw out the unneeded patches

OK so do we know which one is the real one yet?

Right this second, it would seem that this June update is probably the latest. Maybe. It has the most recently updated files compared to the others. For now. This statement is not guaranteed and may change on Microsoft's whim, lead you to a 404, or cause Steve Ballmer to issue a statement saying IE 7 will have tabbed browsing and will automatically share the contents of all of your drives for the sake of convenience.

All I wanna do is slipstream the whole ?$#@$ thing... <sighs>

Well, thanks for making this thread. I had the same question as you, really.
