Man! Just loaded IE 6 hoping it might help with this
problem which keeps coming up, that is, I keep getting the
messege that "Windows (98) cannot find iexplore.exe. This
program is needed for opening files of type 'JPEG Image'"
Can anyone help? I cannot retreive anything off any of my
floppys. Thanks.
 
By default, JPG files open in Internet Explorer.

Make up a file from the lines below. Copy into a file called fix.reg
which should be created in Notepad. Do not retype, copy in case of
errors. The 1st line in the file is the line REGEDIT4
Make sure your mail or news reader does not add any spaces to the end
of a line.
The last line must be blank.
Check that your path for IE is the standard one in fix.reg

Doubleclick fix.reg

-----copy below this line fix.reg------------
