I am giving an old 486/66 (running Windows95, with 20 megRAM) to a friend
who wants to try it before deciding to buy a computer. (He's been away
from computers for about 6-8 years but was a accomplished user in DOS
days, and in fact held my hand thruough my early computer use. He wants
it mainly for EMail and Web research right now.
In any event, setting up the computer for him, I loaded Juno4, which I
knew would run slowly, but says it's OK with a 486/66 and, realizing only
had Netscape, not IE, I loaded the IE5 that was on the Juno CD. In the
process I elected to put on some special parts of IE that were optional,
in case he wanted to see Java script on the Net. (IE5 says it will run
with this configuration, and he and I KNOW it will be slow.)
After I looked at it, I realized that the IE title indicated it was a
Juno "version" of IE5, and it was all set up with DUN for Juno.
Realizing he might have to change to some other ISP after the first of
the year, I thought I'd take off this IE and replace it with a plain one
that comes with Quicken.
However, I find that although I could uninstall the IE extras I loaded, I
can not seem to uninstall IE itself. Using the Control Panel's
ADD/Delete programs, it keeps bringing up a screen that offers to fix IE
to its former configuration. I don't know what's going on.
I thought that IE was not built into Windows until W98.
Can anyone help?
