Internet explore wont run

[djlax152]

for some reason after i run my unattended install Cd Strangly after i double click on Internet explorer to get out to the internet, It is asking me to choose a program to run this file (Like to what happens when you right click a file and do an "Open With") I cant even pick internet explorer program it is missing from the list. I am just curious as to what in the world happend to my cd why in the world it never install internet explorer correctly?

Sounds like you removed Internet Explorer from your UA cd. Try firefox or an alternative browser?

Problem is that i work at a school and the kids have to have IE because of the apps that I run here. Maybee I should just recopy my I386, but then i will have to go back and slipstream sp2 again any other suqestions

Have you tried to run iexplore from the Run box? If you come up with nothing... Then

would be the best suggestion, because who knows what else is missing from your system Edited December 6, 2005 by VAD

I found out that it is under add and remove programs and if i Actually navigate to C:\program files\internet explorer\iexplore.exe works just fine. However the icon on the sceen that windows puts on the desktop by default behaves this way only. Also another funny this happens i tried downloading IE 6.1 and reinstalling it to fix the problem. When i execute the setup program it says "Another instance of this program requires a reboot can not start installation" So I reboot the machine and and it says this everytime i try to run the IE6.1 setup. I even tried rebooting like 5 times, still get the same error..??

Well anyways i did fix the problem by recopying my I386, I guess sometimes after you use the same installation point after a while some files may become corrupt. what do you guys think ?
