TLindt,
good to see you around.
Well, out of all seriousness, you might want to contact MS (you won't get help), or tell your story to the DOJ or some consumer agency (I'm serious). After all, this is what the DOJ is after: MS is limiting the consumer's choice, ie there is no easy way to simply UNinstall their crap, and their crap messes the setup of systems they infest. I't like a virus (ahem, HIV or Ebola). Dangerous. This is exactly the reason that pisses me too. You lose your choices, and it is a one way street.

I use Norton Utilities registry tracker to capture changes.

I don't know if IE 3 modifies anything permanently in the OS's kernel or some other vital files.

If you can't solve the problem.. there is the cure all solution.. yes.. reinstall windows. (my average is twice a year, what's yours?)

good luck Tom.
