Repair Internet Explorer 6


A number of XP users have reported situations with Internet Explorer 6 becoming corrupted and reporting a number of different errors. While there is certainly no guarantee, the two procedures listed below have restored functionality to IE6 for many users experiencing problems.
Note: Both methods listed require that the Microsoft Windows XP CD-ROM be available.
Method 1: Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.x Repair for Windows XP

• Select the OK button.
• Follow the prompts throughout the System File Checker process.

• Reboot the computer when System File Checker completes.
Method 2: Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.x Repair for Windows XP

• In the Look In drop-down menu, select C: or the letter of the hard drive that contains the Windows folder.
• Click the Search button.
