Webmaster Forum / Browsers / Internet Explorer / April 2007IE6 question
1: After I remove IE7, how do I know if I am using IE5 or IE6? 2: Does IE6 have drop down menu? Whatever I have, I have to type in whatever I want to search for, even on eBay. My old computer with Wdo95 had drop down, but this newer used WdoXP computer doesn't. 3: If it's IE5 that I have (which I suspect) where can I get IE6? Thank ewe. > 1: After I remove IE7, how do I know if I am using IE5 or IE6? > 2: Does IE6 have drop down menu? Whatever I have, I have to type in whatever > I want to search for, even on eBay.

Let me rephrase that: If it's IE5 that I have (which I suspect), and it's not in any of my e-mails, where can I get IE6? >>> 3: If it's IE5 that I have (which I suspect) where can I get IE6? >>> Thank ewe.

Looks like just what I want = IE6. But it says "Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1 is recommended for systems running versions of Windows prior to Windows XP". (It's the only IE6 that is listed). However, this used computer I bought 9mo ago HAS WdoXP. Hope it works. Does IE6 have drop down menu? Whatever I have now doesn't. I want ANY Internet Explorer that has drop down menu. Except IE7. > Yes. Looks like just what I want = IE6. But it says "Internet Explorer > 6 Service Pack 1 is recommended for systems running versions of > Windows prior to Windows XP".

Whatever I have now doesn't. > I want ANY Internet Explorer that has drop down menu. Except IE7. IE 7 also has the "drop down menu", but it's just not inserted, by default, because most, if not all, of the same functions are provided by the Command Bar (over on the right). Click the Tools button then select Menu Bar. The File Menu will display over on the left. I think this is what you mean by "drop down menu", right? There is also a regedit fix to put it at the top where IE6 had it. IE7 is very customizable; you just have to explore a little to figure out how to get it the way you want. Also, it's supposed to be much more secure than IE6, which is always a good thing. BTW, the IE6 link above will work fine for you on WinXP. Microsoft inserted that line about prior versions because they want you to run IE7 with WinXP. After you install it, you'll probably need to install a boatload of updates just to make it current. Before I ramble on, I have one simple question. How can I tell what version of IE I have? The only reference I can find anywhere on my computer is the desktop icon which says: IE5423543. Is this the 423543rd version of IE5? (Note: It ain't IE7 because I removed IE7. IE7 was the only IE listed on the 'populated" list) OK, I think I fould it. IE6.0.2900 As I understand the "service pack" download may help. I'll try it. Thanks. >>> 3: If it's IE5 that I have (which I suspect) where can I get IE6? >>> Thank ewe.

Apparently, you didn't receive it. However, I see KCB has already provided a URL. >>> 3: If it's IE5 that I have (which I suspect) where can I get IE6? >>> Thank ewe.

I dl'd that service pack file a little bit ago today and it was only 480 KB. I thought it was the entire install file of in the neighborhood of 10 MB or so. Dennis |
