2 - Wininet.dll files (?)

[carson]

I have (2) Wininet.dll files.
One in C:\...Mod 7/23/2001...vs.5.50.4807.2300.
One in C:\Win\System...Mod. 7/24/2004...vs.5.50.4943.400.

I am getting some IE errors related to Wininet.dll.
I installed some DVD software and the patches from MS in July (the time of the newer vs).
I think the file belongs in Win\System.
Should I just delete the vs in C:\ ? Not sure what installed it there. Maybe the IE patch?
Or is there something else I need to do?.
I'm running Win98SE...IE5.5sp2.
Any recommendations are appreciated.

Regards,
Carson

Yes, wininet should be in Windows\system. Who knows how you got a copy in the root of C (ms patch wouldn't put it there), but it shouldn't be there. You can delete that one.

Thanks for the confirmation, DrMDJ.
How it got there is a mystery...btw, the one in C:\ had no "attributes" checked in properties. So a simple delete removed it. No DOS required, thankfully.
Thanks again.
