What's your recommendation for users of alternative browsers (eg
Firefox)
who
don't even want IE on their machine?

Although it still uses the core of IE...you may want to try the
Enigma
browser...
It seems to work a bit better

Does the file ie6setup.exe, IE6.1 SP perform an upgrade of my
IE5.0_128bit
install or is there another step required. The d/l, ie6setup is only
481kb.

Thanks



That is lots more help than the "MS Help". Thanks!

Also found that one can d/l the whole pkg w/o installing if the 'Custom' install
is chosen.

Yup! I usually add that info to my spiel. Nice to have it all downloaded and
burned to CD before you start a new build.
