I have been told repeatedly that I should "repair internet
Explorer", but when I allow AOL Computer Check to do it, a
small box appears saying that "internet explorer cannot be
repaired" and to "go to set-up" again to "reinstall". When
I try to do it MYSELF, I get the same stupid box. I know
that whatever is wrong with I/E is affecting Outlook, and
my ability to access work mail from home, but I don't know
what else to do, other than go to another level of Windows
(I have 98 now), but the last thing I want to do is buy
ANYTHING else from Microsoft! They just ignore your pleas
for help.. Any suggestions?

Click to expand...

try this then get back.

try this to repair IE, click

Start > Run

then enter exactly (case/space-sensitive) copy/paste it in.

rundll32.exe setupwbv.dll,IE5Maintenance

this will give you the IE Repair dialog... proceed to repair IE - re-boot
and see if
this helps.
