Internet Explorer has encountered a problem and needs to close, it gives me options of either viewing the error report and sending the details to Microsoft? Either way, it restarts my IE. |

It was gone from here before I arrived here, but I guess they removed it because what they had here no longer worked. Nothing on any of the AOL disks works, either. It appears our good friends at Microsoft -- class action, anyone? -- gimmicked IE 5.5 (and probably other versions as well) so that while it is installing from files already downloaded, it still reaches out to the Microsoft servers anyway. When it doesn't find the server, it posts a message that YOU are not connected to the internet and offers to run again later when you are. What is actually happening then is that Microsoft has removed the sites so when your installation files reach out to the net, nothing is found and the installation aborts with the erroneous message that you are not connected to the net. It may be that no one has installation files that do not reach out to the Microsoft sites that no longer exist, so there are no versions of the downloaded files that work. I tried numerous versions on the AOL disks including the latest and none of them worked, all because they couldn't find the sites for which the installation reaches out dueing the installation. Microsoft has obviously tried to ruin the AOL disks and to obsolete W95 with which IE 6.0 does not work. Class action, anyone?
