Default IE6 SP1, and the "large number of files, copy and delete problem"

Well, I did try this out, and yes, indeed, lo and behold, it hangs up the
system (in windows explorer) a bit when you try to either copy or delete a
large number of files. (I tested it out on the Favorites folder
ecently - copy, and later delete that copy).

I've seen the fix proposed here, where those two IE 6 browse DLL files are
swapped out with the older ones from IE 5.5, and was wondering if anyone is
using that now.

From what I remember reading about this, you will lose the ability to
"repair" IE in Add/Remove, unless you put the original DLLs back, but other
than that, what's the verdict here?

So - is anyone in here using IE 6 SP1 (and Win98E) with the two browse DLL
files swapped out to the older IE 5.5 versions, and if so, how is it working
out for you? Any problems?
