    IE 5 is built into win98 therefore its not an option to uninstall
    upgrade to ver 6 and this will fix everything

    Description of the Internet Explorer Repair Tool (Q194177)

    Using an earlier version than Internet Explorer 6? Here is a list of resources available to you.

    I use IE5.01SP2 and you can do more with it than with 5.0. Faster for me than the newer versions.
