I like Firefox but I would also like the option of using IE. I have tried to remove it to reinstall it a good number of times and I can't do it. I get these messages:

Setup cannot copy the file ieakmmc.chm. Then it asks to "Ensure that the location below is correct, or change it and insert Windows NT Service Pack. Uninstall Directory in the drive you specify.

Then it indicates copy files from C\\WINDOS\ie8.

I can't seem to do it.

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Then the topic needs to be moved into the Vista Section of our forum. :)

Not really sure what's happening. That's a strange error message concerning an NT Service Pack.

It isn't Vista. It is XP Pro. I can't use it and I can't remove it. Super frustrating except I like Firefox.

I would love to roll back to IE7 but I can't do that either.

If you installed IE7/IE8 BEFORE you installed XP Service Pack 3, then you will have to Clean Install XP to get rid of the IE7/IE8 installation.

If you installed IE7/IE8 AFTER you installed XP Service Pack 3, then something went wrong because a normal uninstall should take you back to IE6.

sm, what happens when you try to launch IE? Or, what is it about IE that is not working?

sm, if you are running IE7 or IE8, there should be a noext version at Start -> All Programs -> Accessories -> System Tools -> Internet Explorer (No Add-ons). Try that one and see if it will launch.

I will wait until I reformatt my computer I guess. The good thing is I am now so used to Firefox that I don't really miss. IX.
