Reg, I still got to abstain from any serious dialogue with you, but I can handle this ok. As per my previous message, I understand what's going on just fine. What I'm confused about is there actually being an uninstall thing for IE on the control panel. The Mercury story says there is, and I remember there being one, during a previous episode of Windows going south on me, but I don't see it in my current clean fresh OSR2 installation. As I said, beats me.
Not that it's a particularly big deal, I got enough disk that having IE laying around doesn't bother me at all. You want to call me stupid, like Microsoft's calling the judge stupid, it's all cool. Sticks and stones, man. Now that I learned the twin tricks of making c: small and OS only, and storing the whole OS distribution on another partition, I can reformat, reinstall without even having to touch a CD or floppy. Heck, I'm even ready to check out IE4. Now all I got to do is figure out how to burn a disk image on a CD, so I don't have to updated the start menu and desktop, or just figure out the right files to restore..
Cheers, Dan. |
