Hi I use musicmatch and when I try to download a skin I
get a message stating I need to download the latest
version of IE. I am running version 6.0 2800 1106. If I
try and update it says the newwest version is installed.
I may have had an attack from a spyware programme that may
have corrupted IE. Is it possible to re-instate IE
without re-fomatting my computer.
Any advise will be most welcome.
 
Bob, someone may well have a simpler answer but here's some info on spyware
since you obviously have your suspicions...

Also do you use a popup blocker or anything that claims to increase your
"Privacy"? There are a few things that will send a misleading user agent
string to websites ... check the bottom of this page and see what browser it
is seeing.

For me it shows...

You are using Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 (compatible; MSIE 6.0; Windows
NT 5.0; .NET CLR 1.1.4322)
