mshtml.dll

There are a couple of fixes for problems with this module
but they will only apply post-SP1. Well, I am post-SP1 and
they will not apply. My browser is at version
6.0.2800.1106 update version SP1 and every time I try to
apply the patches I get kicked-out with a rejoinder about
getting SP1!! Does no one police these patches to see that
they can be applied. So now I have two problems my system
is falling over with the mshtml glitch and the MS software
does not recognise its own update. Anyone have any ideas?

Usually the message that *this update requires Internet Explorer 6.0 SP1*
(or similar) is the result of attempting to apply an earlier cumulative
update than one already applied (and which is unnecessary because they are
cumulative).

However, knowing which patch you're talking about might help.

Hello Shane, yes the reps I am trying to apply (the actual
failure showed up when this Post a New message window
appeared) are contained in Q816506 and Q824150, thank you
for taking an interest.

Malcolm,

Presuming you read the documents associated with those patches and saw the
warning about order of installing. Whatever, and whether or not that is
relevant: below is a list of all IE6.0SP1 (security) updates since Apr 2003
and the elder of the two patches you're trying to install. I'd be surprised
if you don't have any of them installed. But if so, I'd have thought the
problem you're trying to correct should have been long since dealt with.

When you click Help | About, what update versions are listed? And when did
the mshtml problem start? What was installed or done prior to it?

Wow Shane, you seem to be going to an awful of trouble, I
do appreciate it. The problem started after I updated to
SP 1. I run the BT/Yahoo browser as originallt thought
that it was something that they were doing. 6.0.2800.1106
and SP 1 is the current version of my browser. I have
found a second version of the MSHTML module in the VSM
folder that is older that is older and smaller than the
one is SYSTEM.7/7/2004 as opposed to 22/06/2004 and 2738
kb against 2730? I will search through your list of
patches.

Shane, I checked the list you sent, some were not
applicable and of the others I ran into the good old SP1
problem.

No problem. Doesn't take much to get that list at Microsoft's Technet site.


Shane

Shane, I checked the list you sent, some were not
applicable and of the others I ran into the good old SP1
problem.

Yeah. The point I meant to make was that if any of those marked "cumulative"
had already been installed - eg by Automatic Updating - you'd be getting the
*requires SP1* error message.

Likewise if you installed more than one and not in chronological order. You
only need the most recent cumulative update. Can you install - or try to
install just that one - if you haven't already - and see how, if at all,
that affects things?

The most recent - 867801 - will start downloading from he
http://tinyurl.com/5fc3d. Install offline and with anti-virus turned off.
btw did you install IE6.0SP1 off-line?


Shane

The system tried to apply the 0sp1 said it was already
applied and then asked for a reload?? What sort of country
am I in now Shane?

Malcolm,

Have you tried repairing Internet Explorer? In Add/Remove Programs,
highlight Internet Explorer, click Remove, select *Repair*.

Otherwise, I reckon your best bet might be to revert to the previous
version - assuming
you still can, ie the requisite files haven't been deleted. In Add/Remove
Programs again, highlight Internet Explorer, click Remove, choose the one to
restore the previous version (I forget the wording). Assuming that can be
done, I should give it a reboot or two, a disk cleanup, run SCANREG /FIX
then re-install IE6.0sp1, then go straight to the patch you just tried.
