Internet explorer 6

Since downloading internet explorer 6 I have been experiencing the problem of
my system closing down and re-booting itself with no advance warning. It is
extremely annoying. Can anoyone PLEASE advise????

What operating system are you using?
Did you load all the Service Packs and updates or just the basic package for
IE6?

Hi Alan,

Originally I only had the basic package for windows 98. I have downloaded
some of the updates but not all as yet. Do you think this could be the
problem??

Try running the Internet Explorer Repair Tool.
There are two ways to do this. First try Start\Programs\Accessories\System
Tools\System Information. Under Tools select Internet Explorer repair Tool.
If this does not work and comes up with an error message to the effect that
there is a newer version of IE on the system go to Microsoft web site and
access the Knowledge base article 293907. This header for this is:- How to
Uninstall IE6. On the second page there is a section on How to repair or
return to a previous version of IE. You then need to copy\cut\paste that
highlighted entry into the box opened up when you select Start\Run. If
successful either way you will get a pop up box with two options. One says
install additional IE components and the second is the one you want which
says repair IE. Once selected it goes away and does its own thing. I do this
on a regular basis and it does make a difference. When I first started doing
this it found some missing files which I had to install and generally since
then it has been ok
