Hello
Does anybody know if one has to reload updates/SP's etc. when one runs:
Windows\Inf folder?

I have not actually run this file I'm asking the question in advance. The
actual instructions read:
Method 2: Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.x Repair for Windows XP

a.. From the Start menu, select Search, select All Files and Folders.
b.. Select More Advanced Options and place a checkmark beside Search
Hidden Files and Folders option.
c.. Ensure that Search System Folders and Search Subfolders are also
checked.
d.. In the All or Part of the File Name box, type ie.inf
e.. In the Look In drop-down menu, select C: or the letter of the hard
drive that contains the Windows folder.
f.. Click the Search button.
g.. In the search results pane, find the ie.inf file located in
Windows\Inf folder.
h.. Right click the ie.inf file and click Install on the context menu.
i.. Reboot the computer when the file copy process is complete.
I wanted to know if anybody had actually used this procedure to fix a
browser and what the results were, including having to run SP2/updates
again. Thanks.
