...and how do you uninstall IE6 when it is integrated into the Win XP operating system shell?

You can reinstall IE6 over the top of itself by using this trick...

Code:

Insert the Win XP SP2 CD
  

  Open Start / Run and paste this in:
  

  rundll32.exe setupapi,InstallHinfSection DefaultInstall 132 c:\windows\inf\ie.inf
  

  Press ENTER

Good one Lurks, I had a good chortle over that. I bet after IE8 is released they will slap a patch on it to fix a "Buffer Overflow Error" security exploit hole.

What M$ should do is to purchase Opera and rename it IE <<<insert number of choice>>>. No wait ...they did that with Giant security software, and renamed it Defender and that is the second biggest POS M$ software as well...
