| 441036 | 2006-03-27 00:19:00 | Forget IE and OE and get Firefox and Thunderbird | KiwiTT_NZ (233) | ||
| 441037 | 2006-03-27 00:31:00 | Try here for a stack of updates for Win98SE, and the second link for IE 6 SP1, I think OE is included with IE. www.microsoft.com www.microsoft.com Edit: OE updates from here: www.microsoft.com |

| 441038 | 2006-03-27 01:09:00 | go find a magizine disk like the ones pc world have, they often have the later IE and OE on it. personally i wouldn't use either but some other programs require you to have certain vers of IE installed before they will install :( | tweak'e (69) | ||
| 441039 | 2006-03-27 04:00:00 | Both are on the CD that you used for W98se. Did you do a custom install? | Peter H (220) | ||
| 441040 | 2006-03-27 04:21:00 | Both are on the CD that you used for W98se. Did you do a custom install? Cough, cough, splutter...yes indeed, but look how old those versions are. |

| 441041 | 2006-03-27 07:34:00 | Thanks for the responses. I have downloaded Firefox and didn't get my settings transferred from IE when I installed it! How to do this now? I uninstalled FF but there was no transferring option on reinstalling. I wonder whether FF would have transferred the settings from a slaved hdd anyway? I am on dialup and Clear is my ISP |

| 441042 | 2006-03-27 08:26:00 | In Firefox if you click on File, there is an option to import settings including passwords, favorites etc from IE | Terry Porritt (14) | ||
| 441043 | 2006-03-27 08:30:00 | To TP. Yes, I agree, but do you assume that new versions are better? I have updated IE to 5.5, but I can assure you, that unlike XP, I do not need to download a zillion fixs to even connect to the net. Also, nothing wrong with OE 5. Read a few reviews about Nortons, and you will find that every new version is worse. Same with many programmes. | Peter H (220) | ||
| 441044 | 2006-03-27 08:45:00 | Windows 9x is probably so old now that all the worms have died out. Your system is inconpadible with everything - even malware :p | Greven (91) | ||
