You Say:::IE5.5: EXACTLY what you have !
Now we know that windows 98 SE out of the box with IE 5.1

No Win98 comes "out of the box" with:

Here's a chart style.

IE Version Shipped With
1.0 Win 95 PLUS pack (not part of Win95 by default)
2.0 Win NT4
3.0 Win 95 OSR2
4.0 Win 98
5.0 Win 98 SE and Win 2000
5.5 Win Millennium Edition (ME)
6.0 Win XP Home/Pro
7.0 VISTA
8.0 Windows 7

IE5.1 was the minimum [not IE5.0 base level which is what you get]
which used to function on WU. To have IE5.1 required you obtain or
already have the updates to bring it to that level in a new install.
WHY?
Likely to force users to install IE6 which was PLASTERED all over the
Internet and offered on almost every CD from suppliers of games and
other [during the Win98 support period AFTER IE6.0 was released]... the
site used to require only IE4 ,then IE5.0, then IE5.1.

I said - I have IE5.1, IE5.5, IE6.0 SP1 [in Win98SE].

and Window Update will not work with it....
SO we have go up say to IE5.5 to use Window Update right or
How hi up would you said that one need to go from IE 5.1 to get
Window Update to work?


Well, if it turns your crank, you could test it yourself via the evolt
browser link I provided and tell us what version it NOW requires verses
the IE5.1 it required as of a few months ago [though it did require Sun
JAVA installed].

Huh, where does it say its Win95?


you say that you have IE5.5 but it not go to C:\Program
Files\Internet
Explorer , Right Hand Click Iexplore.exe
Click on Version it will be 6.00.2800.1106 that is a IE6 SP1
just To see if I right .


Which one? In one installation the version IS IE6 since I used the
Security Updates CD during installation. in another its IE5.1 [manually
updated], in another its IE5.5 updated online... so YOURS may be IE6,
that does not mean it was required, just what you did.

No it doesn't [or didn't]. It is *recommended* to use IE6 [which was
not recommended for installation in Win98FE], as of my last test
cycle
[about three months now] it still can be accessed with IE5.1 and
functions, though the FIRST update is/was to IE5.5 and its updates.

So you got the other issues corrected then?
[reference: this group's query - WinFE]
What did you do to correct those issues?
I,m still working on the winFE problem with the out of range ip
addresses. I
may just upgrade to SE...

Before you do that, use Windows Update to update the WinFE computer
which you previously indicated was at base "re-installed" level
[you
need at least IE5.1 installed to access the site, IE5.5 can reduce
the
necessary downloads].
You can find IE5.5 (or others) on evolt:

http://browsers.evolt.org/?ie/win32

The links I provided previously in the other discussion and in this
discussion should help, AFTER updating, to resolve your issues.
