173026 2003-09-04 21:54:00 I run Windows ME on my laptop and Microsoft update says I should get Explorer latest service pack but it will take too long to stay on line both at work or home. Firstly should I get the service pack and secondly how can I perhaps get a disc to update it. Thanks. bruciebear (1478)
173027 2003-09-04 22:08:00 It is recommended that you get the service pack as it fixes a lot of security holes that could compromise your computer's security. The PC World and other magazines have often had service packs on their CDs but I am not sure whether they have lately. Someone else may be able to advise. tommy (2826)
173028 2003-09-04 22:21:00 I notice Netguide CD for Aug and July has Explorer 6 but I presume it is the whole thing rather than just the service pack? bruciebear (1478)
173029 2003-09-04 22:21:00 The service pack is included in the latest version of IE, so you would download and install "Internet Explorer 6 SP1".

It's on the PCW Cover Disc, yes, and I too agree that its worth upgrading!

Dont forget to run Spybot Search and destroy to kill the Alexa Spyware that comes with it ;-)

And re-run every time you run "Repair IE"!
