Hi wily I'm in Iceland, the Microsoft server is reading my IP address and sends a message saying it is a U.S. law that 128 bit encryption can not be exported out of the country. I have IE 4 on CD but I downloaded the IE4.01 service patch while I was over here. I'm not sure if the 128 bit encryption is included on the disk or not--is anybody out there familiar with IE4's security features? I just checked my Add/Remove for IE5 and it is not grayed out. When I click on the Add/Remove button I get a dialogue box with 3 choices: 1.Add a component 2.Repair IE 3.Restore previous Windows configuration The third choice will uninstall or selectively restore the components you specify----anyway that's what comes up when I drag the "?" onto it. Aha, just noticed an advanced button, I clicked on it and it has an option to "Delete the backup information for Internet Explorer. This will free 7MB of disk space BUT you will no longer be able to uninstall IE5." Sounds like it could be your backup info is gone. Lou
