Have an XP system where MSIE refuses to launch ("an error occurred").

How do I re-install/repair MSIE on XP?

Thanks.
 
Hi,
Repair/reinstall IE:

But, it's likely that another program is causing this and reinstalling IE
won't fix it.

If running XP SP2, try IE> Tools> Manage add-ons. Disable add-ons to see if
one of them is the culprit. If not using SP2, try one of these free
programs:
ToolbarCop: http://windowsxp.mvps.org/toolbarcop.htm
BHODemon 2.0: http://www.definitivesolutions.com/bhodemon.htm

Another program, possibly malware, might be causing this.
