Nick ,I did follow the instructions,ans above, and there wasnt any pwl files in there, so I made a copy on a floppy of the MSPW as above and installed it in the computer but it doesnt stay there and I don know if even copied rightor something else is wrongas to why there wasnt any PWL FOLDERS OR FILES in the find area with the little magifying glass going around?

In step 2 above, make sure you typed the name in find: *.pwl (no spaces)
Also when you look in start/find, make sure the 'Look In' box points to your c: drive.
I looked at the download of M$ file and the first thing it said was:"This program updates the Windows 95 password list library. Do you want to continue?" I entered 'no' and came back here to post this.

Have you tried start/setup/control panel/add-remove programs and find IE and choose remove. This should bring up an option to repair IE. But if it finds anything wrong, I can't remember if you then need windows 98 cd to repair or if it will do it online.

The laplink I referred to in my PM may not be an option unless your laptop is identical to the one you want to download. These laptop CD installs make sure all the unique drivers designed for your laptop are installed correctly.
People install a different OS all the time, but finding the right drivers for your specific hardware is sometimes a bear.
Let us know.
