Internet Explorer 6.0 Sp1 Component Update 3.0 for Windows 98

You forgot the era, AND the intent of creating the browser. Its a transitional browser, as far as Microsoft was concerned, Win98 was moving to EOL... What a joke. IE6 was released in August 2001, only 2 years after Win-98se. Only in your twisted mind could that time-frame be classified as "moving to EOL". The fact is that in Microsoft's eyes, every OS is moving toward EOL the day it's released. |

Let me spell it out for you. IE 3 was the transitional browser for Win 98, IE 4 was the transitional browser for Win98SE, IE 5.5 was the transitional browser for Millennium [note not even Microsoft considered Millennium to be a real offering, one could easily say the entire OS was transitional], IE 6 was the transitional browser for XP, IE 7 was the transitional browser for VISTA, IE 8 is the transitional browser for Windows 7. Here's a chart style so maybe you can understand WITHOUT having to comprehend what you are reading. 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 And yes, Microsoft does have and follow PLANNED OBSOLESCENCE. The only thing that gets in the way of that is the occasional suit that may force extended activities. -- MEB http://peoplescounsel.org/ref/windows-main.htm Windows Info, Diagnostics, Security, Networking http://peoplescounsel.org The "real world" of Law, Justice, and Government ___--- |

Hey stupid, what year was XP being prepared for public offering. What does that have to do with anything? Win-98 was supported for FIVE MORE YEARS after IE6 was released. Win-98se was less than 1/3 of the way to EOL at the time that IE6 was released. You REALLY have no clue do you. Let me spell it out for you. IE 3 was the transitional browser for Win 98 What exactly is your fixation on the time-line and pedigree of IE? It's a known fact that MS likes to bring out a new version of IE just prior to a new OS, basically for only ONE reason: They know that various web-metrics measurements will try to guage the success of the new OS by looking at how many hits they get with the new browser. By introducing a new version of IE slightly before the new version of Windoze, they make it difficult to guage the true growth of the new OS because there will be a growing fraction of the older OS that will update to the new version of IE. IE 4 was the transitional browser for Win98SE IE5 was released in March 1999 and was included with Windows 98se and Office 2000. A bug-fix version 5.01 was released in December 1999 and this is the version that shipped with win-2000. So here again we see a commonality in IE between win-98 and 2K platforms. Here's a chart style so maybe you can understand WITHOUT having to comprehend what you are reading. What is that supposed to prove? It's clear that IE 5, 5.5 and 6-SP1 were SIMULTANEOUSLY COMPATIBLE with both the 9X/ME and NT platforms. You can't wrap your head around that simple fact. There is a major difference in the security model implimentation between IE6 Sp1 and Sp2, and this is why the Sp2 version is not compatible with win-98. This helps to illustrate the reason why IE6-SP1 is actually MORE compatible with the 9x/me family rather than the NT line. |
