internet explorer 6 setup on win2k fails after reboot
I've had this error a lot of times. I have a full download of internet explorer 6 so i don't have to go through windows update all the time and wait till everything downloads again. I run the internet explorer setup, the computer then reboots to finish the setup, there's a window that appears on the top left corner ...

I run the internet explorer setup, the computer then reboots to finish the setup, there's a window that appears on the top left corner of the screen that goes through steps of the IE6 setup but around the 3rd step i get the error "explorer.exe has performed bla bla bla... and will be shut down". OK so i'm left with a blank desktop. i then reset the computer, get into windows 2000 fine, but it seems IE6 has been only partly installed. I'm left with a hybrid IE5 and 6 that causes a lot of errors...It's impossible to uninstall cuz it's not listed in add/remove programs => format again...
Has anyone had this error, and is there some kind of fix?? Or will i just have to live with IE 5.0 as long as i stay in windows 2000?
Thanks
