Windows Forum / Internet Explorer / General Topics / June 2008Win XP SP3
I am running Win XP and IE7. I am goig to uninstall IE7 through add/remove programs, then am going to reinstall IE7. I need to know how to find out if I have XP SP3 installed on my computer. I get automatic updates and updates are shown in Add/Remove Programs. What KB# would it be? Thank you. Why do you want to uninstall & reinstall? In OE | Help | About, if you have SP3 it will show: Microsoft Outlook Express 6 600.2900.5512. It is listed in Add/Remove, not as a KB, but simply alphabetically as Windows Service Pack 3 See these links first and download IE7 from the link provided with your anti-virus turned off and all other programs closed.

I had a post -Autocomplete-from the 5th of this month. Someone gave me lots of good suggestions. I tried them all, but none fixed autocomplete.

Right click on "My computer" icon and select properties and it should tell you somewhere in the window that opens.

Great answer. It says Service Pack 2, so now I know I don't have SP3. > I figured since I received automatic updates, I would have SP3. But, I don't.
