HI:I Upgrade it IE 4.0 To IE 6.0 SP1
But The Repair Option is not Available Via
Start/Run/Msinfo32/Internet Repair Tools/
On the other hand The Option To Revert Back
To a Previous Version is grayed out
I have Tried To Run The Setup again with no joy
Any Suggestions Before I use a Third Party Software To Take it Out

If you do end up using a 3rd party soft (IEradicator?) to remove IE6, give some thought regarding what you will replace it with. I've been over the river and through the woods with Win98SE and various browsers. As far as M$ is concerned IE5.5 SP2 is the best combo I've found.

Having said that... MyIE2 (which runs on the IE shell) is the cleanest, Most versitile browser I've ever used.

You can get a full version download (48mb) of IE5.5 SP2 here:

MyIE2 is avilable here:

I recommend the "Lite" version.

I am a big fan of IE6sp1 but recently tried Mozilla'a Firebird 0.7 browser at 6mb download and find it much like IE. I have no complaints about it except I prefer to continue to use IE6sp1.
Firebird is not based on IE or MS but is pretty good.

On a side note: You state you have gone to Start/Setting/Control panel/Add/Remove/IE6.0 Browser/

Was that Start/Setting/Control panel/Add/Remove/Microsoft Internet Explorer... or as you have shown it?

I ask just to make sure you have selected the correct item in that panel.
