Windows 95

to answer the first question, to the best of my knowlege IE 6.0 will not funtion on a 95 platform. i have tried and i have come to no avail, it seems to reference to the currunt version of windows and will not let you install on a 95 client. As for the security updates, yes thier is a way to get all the current updates for your machine. go to the following web site.

this will give you the option to check for the latest security update for all your microsoft products.

Microsoft is no longer supporting the Windows 95 Operating System, that's why you cannot run a Windows Update on it. I know that for Windows Media Player, you cannot install higher than version 6 on a W95 PC. You can however, go to the MS Windows update site and there should be a link to install the IE6 from there. I have installed it on a couple of older PC's that I have yet to upgrade to 98 or NT2K, so I know that it works!

Hi

Firstly, Internet Explorer will only install on Windows 98 or higher. It will not install on a system running Windows 95. Check out Microsoft's site, and try to upgrade an earlier version of IE and you will receive a message which says you must have Windows 98 or higher.

Secondly, to update your copy of Windows 95: start up Internet Explorer, click on Tools, then select Windows Update. You will be connected to Microsoft's Windows Update site, and your system will be checked to see which updates you have installed (no information is transmitted to Microsoft). You will then be presented with a list of critical and non-critical updates, both for your system and for Internet Explorer. Although Microsoft has indeed stopped support for Windows 95, you can still update your system automatically using this site.

There you go
