Download Incomplete (IE 5.5)

awakenings · #1 February 15th, 2003, 02:14 AM

I had recently upgraded from IE 5.5 to IE 6, well, when I got it installed and everything I was unable to complete a download. For an example, when I tried to download a music file (I'm on a 36-56k connection) I could only download a couple hundred kbs, then the "DOWNLOAD COMPLETE" box pops up.

When this did this for a few days, I down graded to IE 5.5 again and I'm still unable to complete a download. Anyone know what the problem may be?

Hope I made sense

Hi awakenings - try repairing your IE6 installation (Start > Settings > Control Panel. Click on Add/Remove Programs and select Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 from the list of installed programs. Click on the Add/Remove button and a dialogue box will open offering you three options. Choose Repair Internet Explorer and follow the prompts). If that doesnt work, install IE6 SP1 and see if that helps.

cody - I had uninstalled IE 6 the way that the article stated. So the outcome was negative.

AnnMarie - When you say 'repair', I am guessing that I should have IE 6 still installed on my computer?

I will be installing IE 6 again and see if I can get it too work.

Ooops, sorry awakenings, no excuse, I just did not read your post thoroughly. You can use the same prodcedure to repair IE5.5 if you havent already reinstalled IE6.
