I am having trouble with my Internet Options/Security Settings. I can't
seem to get them back to the default values. I set it on default but I
still can't get on sites I could before. My real question is:

I am running XP Professional and IE6 was part of the install. How do I
uninstall IE6 & reinstall it fresh without fooling with XP itself? I don't
see IE6 listed in the add/remove programs area.

Thanks in advance... Bob

It sounds like I might be in over my head. It sounds pretty complicated to
me. Why can't I just uninstall & reinstall like any other program?

I am sure the problem is just my settings. Is it possible to get a list of
the default settings for all the options in IE6 TOOLS/OPTIONS/SECURITY?
I'm sure the problem is with a change I made there but I can't find it.

Thanks... Bob
