Default OE6 and ME

Thanks to both of you. I'll keep watching for another reply from the
"experts."

I was wondering if this might be the case so I've been watching this thread.

It sounds like someone reinstalled WinME without having first uninstalled
IE6, so do NOT attempt to reinstall/overinstall IE6! I'm crossposting this
reply to WinME General newsgroup. The experts there will be able to assist
you in getting this sorted out.

Thank you very much! She'll appreciate the information. Funny thing is,
she
has IE6, but OE5. Wonder how that happened? So what do she do, install IE6
again?

I hesitate to recommend IE7 'cause I'm having some problems with it.

OE6 will work fine with ME. It is part of IE6, so that is what you need
to
download.

Make sure OE is backed up first, just in case.

Is OE 6 compatible with ME? Have a friend with ME who is very
comfortable
with it, but I was wondering if she could update her ver. 5 to 6.
