Hi Everyone!
Can anyone help me out here!
I have an HP xe813 desktop pc running windows ME, I just bought a domain name and I am ready to work on my new web site!
I can not open front pages as my pc is running IE 5.5, I install IE 6 and get this
Set up was unable to install all the components. Please close all applications and try running setup again.
I have done this and I still keep getting the same thing!
What should I try next?
Feel free to e-mail me directly at titeredhead@yahoo.com
Thanks!

Download the *full version* of IE6 from the Microsoft site and try installing that. The downloading-installer sometimes doesn't work properly.

OR better yet download the FULL IE 6.0 SP1 browser at one of these sites:

http://tucows.iinet.com.au/pub/microsoft/i...sp1/ie60sp1.exe
http://ftp.up.ac.za/pub/windows/microsoft/...sp1/ie60sp1.exe

it's an 80 Meg download so if you are using a dialup connection, use a third party download manager to download and resume file transfers. once you get this massive download, extract all the files inside to a temp folder and run the ie6setup.exe file from that folder to install IE 6 SP1.

I prefer downloading from Microsoft, since they seem to have much faster servers. I've gotten over 11MB/s downloading from them.

update on IE6 setup: Microsoft has revised the IE6 setup installer - download the updated installer here:

http://download.microsoft.com/download/ie6...US/ie6setup.exe

It contains newer version of ie6wzd.exe file. Also revised is the VGX.CAB file which includes the updated VGX.DLL file that fixes the security flaw mentioned in MS security bulletin MS04-028 and MS KB article 833989
