Trying to free up space on my 1 gig hard drive, I corrupted my Outlook Express so that I couldn't access it. On the recommenation of a tech at my IP I uninstalled it prior to reinstalling it. Then I discovered that Microsoft no longer supports Win95 and I couldn't get Outlook Express back. The more I did the worse things got. Also lost MIE 5. I reinstalled Win95, got on the web but now I have MIE2. Any suggestions about how I can retrieve both IE5 and Outlook Express 5? I have someone elses old Win 98 disc. Can I load that or can I buy a newer version (not xp.) Thanks a lot.
