I have windows XPhome. It has IE 5.1. I want to get rid of it but you
cant.The next best thing is to replsce it with IE 6.0. I went to the download
site and downloaded it but when I went to setup I got the following message
"set has detected a newer version of IE already installed of this system.
Can't continue." Any way to get around this? Or,if not. How do I get inside
of IE to clean up some of the junk in there?

XP does not have IE5.1
XP comes with IE6.0
What shows in IE-Help-About?
