| There have been some rumors (not created by me) that some people using
| Win98SE had some problems with IE 6.

Don't try to drag me into this! I'm not going through all those tests
again!

Thanks or Good Luck,
There may be humor in this post, and,
Naturally, you will not sue,
should things get worse after this,

case -
| most people here say it works great. So - if you want the newest
model, go

|
| But as for me, (and just as an aside), I'm still QUITE CONTENT with
WMP 6.4
| too (just for the record) So there! LOL.

| MS considers IE6 SP1 to be a Critical Update:

| The

| engineering
| team at Microsoft.
|
| Upgrading will necessitate two (2) visits to Windows Update: One
to
| install
| IE6 SP1 (and reboot), then another to install post-SP1 updates for
both
| IE
| and Win98. To assure a clean install, your anti-virus application
| should be
| disabled and all other running processes closed before installing
| anything,
| including Windows Updates.
|
| Early versions of IE6 SP1 proved troublesome for a small minority
of
| Win98
| users but such bugs have been addressed and trouble us no more.
Don't
| let
| anyone else tell you differently. (And don't believe a word of
what
