Upgrading to IE 6 SP1 (or IE 6 by itself) is what resulted in that file copy
and delete problem in the first place, for Win98 users! That's what Frank's DLL swapping solution resolves. ( http://www.frankprovo.com/win98ie6filesproblem.htm ) I can bear testimony to that, cause that's where I'm at now. The only other alternative was to rollback to IE 5.5 SP2 - or just live with the problem, which I'm not willing to do. Rick T wrote: As I recall, that doesn't work.

you in fact actually upgrade to IE6 SP1 to see if there was an improvement? -- Glen Ventura, MS MVP Shell/User, A+ http://dts-l.org/goodpost.htm "Bill in Co." wrote in message ...
