-hey, has anybody noticed that the unofficial IE 6.0+ VGX.DLL file subs just fine into IE 5.5sp2?


IE5.5SP2 uses VGX.DLL 5.50.4133.200 or hotfix version 5.50.4909.1000.
IE6.0 uses VGX.DLL 6.00.2600.0000
IE6.0SP1 uses 6.00.2800.1106 (first release), 6.00.2800.1265 (re-release and KB826940), 6.00.2800.1411 (KB833989 security update), 6.00.2800.1461 (KB883586 hotfix), 6.00.2800.1488 (KB890573 hotfix)

Original Microsoft VGX fixes install on systems with IE 6.0 SP1 only (6.00.2800.1106-6.00.2800.9999) , I have no idea if the 6.0SP1 version of VGX.DLL can be used with IE6.0 or IE5.5SP2.

i think the unofficial IE925486 patch listed at MDGx's IE page should be revised to work under IE 5.5 as well if v6.00.2800.1580 of the vgx.dll file works under IE 5.5 original, SP1 & SP2.

Agreed.

I can confirm that it definitely works under 5.5 SP2, as I have tested various pages with vector artwork examples, including Microsoft's own...

http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default....ref/default.asp

(Choose "VML Demos" on the left-side menu)

However it should be noted that the patch won't install on 5.5 SP2 by double-clicking it. Instead, the contents of the .exe must be extracted first - and then the old vgx.dll must be unregistered and this new one registered again after being placed in the correct folder.
