IE6 update does not work

I have successfully set up a dual-boot between Windows 98 and 2000 on my PC. The problem I am having now, is that I can't get Internet Explorer 6 to work properly. I downloaded the files and ran the install, and everything appears to work fine. But after the restart, the IE icon is still the IE5 one, and when I start it, it looks like IE5 still. If I click "Help, About Internet Explorer", it still says it is IE5, then comes up with a wierd error message and closes the dialog box. I tried going to Add/Remove Programs and click repair Internet Explorer, but that gave me a message saying it cannot repair it. If I clicked the details button, it gave a list of several files that are version 5.00.xxx and said that they needed to be at least version 6.00.xxx. I have tried reinstalling it twice, still the same problems. Any ideas?
