    Calling all Computer geeks (again)!!

    I use toshiba laptop and it has Millenium ME. Recently I got rid of IE and went with a different browser (firefox). Firefox is not impressive (I seem to have some issues w/it...and I want to go back to IE...problem is that I deleted IE and now I can't figure out how to get it back on here. It won't let me put the newest IE on here either because I use Millenium, so someone help please!

    I don't think it's possible to delete IE. It's gotta be there somewhere.


    BTW, I've got a Toshiba Satellite with Win ME. I just don't use it anymore.

    correct, IE is integrated into the OS, to my knowledge you can not actually delete it

    Yep this is a Satellite as well. Trust me, if I could afford a new desktop right now I would. Problem is I can't, so I'm stuck with this laptop and firefox that has caused errors the last couple hours. I wish I could find IE on here somewhere so I can throw it back on my desktop and use it again.

    Add/Remove Software . . . add window's components and check the IE box.

    OU-HSV try maxthon.

    It's a great browser and it may work with ME.

    www.maxthon.com

    It's a tabbed browser and has a lot of good security features built into it.

    It is possible to unistall it. If you did go here -

    IE 6

    If you didn't, put a new short cut on your desktop,

    If you can't afford a replacement, then at the very minimum...for the love of Pete...at least upgrade to Win2000. You can probably find a copy laying around somewhere that someone would let you have for free at this point.

    Now that's an idea. That would at least get me through this computer slump for the next few months til I can get a new desktop.
