Thanks ... if you think that would help (ie. "supply my autoexec and
config files"). Note however, the problem isn't with running IE5, etc.,
the problem is that it just won't install - the installation software is
nice and pretty, but it doesn't tell me why it can't install the browser
and dialler components, it just puts a "big red cross" next to description
lines for these two (a "big green tick" would be better ;-). It then says
to look at the "readme" file for reasons, but this doesn't help!  :-(


Joe.
