Does .NET 2003 require IE6?

[Vance Green]

Ther reason I ask is that the .NET install overwrote my perfectly
working IE 5.5 SP2 install with the buggy IE 6, and I'm not very
happy about it...lots of problems.

The release notes say NOTHING about this, and the install DID NOT
ask me if I wanted to.

If .NET is OK with 5.5, I'll be removing 6.0 as fast as I can
open Add/Remove programs...

Hi,

This page states that IE 5.01 or better is required:

I would seriously recommend upgrading to 6.0 if you're doing .NET
development. As I recall, some features such as No Touch Deployment only
work properly with 6.0. What bugs are you encountering with IE 6.0? Did you
install the IE 6.0 service packs and patches using Windows Update?

I've seen the sort of slow down when network (or other resources) cannot be
found, one symptom of this is when pressing windows key and R, the run box
takes an age to appear.

I know, this has happened to me too, but it's not
the case this time
