Microsoft Virtual Machine Updates Are Available Only from Windows Update
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?kbid=299672
'Updates to the Microsoft Virtual Machine (Microsoft VM) are available only
if you are currently running a version of the Microsoft VM.'
'Internet Explorer no longer offers the Microsoft VM by means of Install on
Demand. Security updates to the Microsoft VM are available from Windows
Update only if you are already running a version of the Microsoft VM.'
I take it you are running Win 98 as it seems you are still using IE 5.X
To determine which version of the virtual-machine is installed do the
following;
Open the MS-DOS prompt from the Start/Program button type in the following
command
JVIEW (hit the enter key.)
The last build is 3810
If installed you will see the version number on the top line.
"It is most likely that your system already has the Microsoft VM on it if
you are running any operating system other than Windows XP. If you have
Windows XP and your computers manufacturer did not preinstall the Microsoft
VM, or you did not download the Microsoft VM from Windows Update or
http://www.microsoft.com prior to July 10, your system may not have the
Microsoft VM on it. To get the Microsoft VM, you will need to install
Windows XP SP1. "
