Need Help Internet Explorer Wont Open Internet Options Or...

Post by Apocalypse535 »

or uninstall it isnt listed and i want to be able to use internet options and it wont let me reinstall it cuz it says its already installed on this computer and i manualy removed some virus's which went great only i messed some things up so if anyone can help me reinstall or fix my internet explorer i would appreciate it.

*also i tried add/remove programs and it said it may have already been uninstalled would you like to remove it from the list? and i did so this is my position in this problem*

the version of ie explorer im using is

Internet Explorer 7 Beta 3 for Windows XP SP2

p.s. if i remove the files manualy will i screw up my internet connection?

Internet explorer can't be uninstalled.Besides if you want to try something ask a friend if he can sent you the iexplorer.exe in the c:/windows/system32 folder.

You can uninstall IE but thats kind of a bad idea. Add/remove programs will do it just select the add remove windows components. I went to that option once to see what there was and somehow it got rid of my IE, its a very unstable part of windows. To fix the problem just put in your windows xp cd and tell it to repair. Also consider getting a better anti virus program. Avast is free btw.

Actually, the new IE is better than Firefox (I know, it's a shock.) :?

This isn't a topic debating whether firefox or IE is the best.
