I have downloaded Spybot Search and Destroy freeware and
after running it on 12-26-03, my IE6 no longer can link to
the internet. I receive a message that url/page not found.

However, I can use netscape just fine. I recovered all the
files using the programs recovery tool and still not luck.
I reinstalled IE6 after downloading from MS and still not
luck.

Should I uninstall IE and reinstall it? If so how would I
do this, I am running win 98, release 2.

Any other advise as to how to fix IE?

I had a backup of the register and imported this, and now
it is working again, because spybot removes some things
from the register.
 
After working all day on this, I am back to normal again.
What I discovered, was that a set of applications
called "Shopathome" that were flagged as spyware and hence
removed were the culprit. I was able to recover them and
IE6 began finding the DNS instantly.

Just a heads up, Spybot marks this as a should be deleted
application.
