Internet Explorer Installation

You can download IE6 (incl SP1) for Windows 9x/Me/2000 from here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie/downloads/default.mspx#EDAA

You do not need this for Windows XP as it already has IE6 (use windows update for SP1 updates).

go to www.windowsupdate.com
and choose windowsupdate catalog (at you lower right hand)

and choose your package, (ie, windowspatches etc etc)

I know that this trick works from a Windows 98 PC.

I have been told it does not work from a W2K, or XP system.

Download and run the IE installer from the IE page.

Select custom.
Under advanced options, there is an checkbox for download only. This will save the IE installation files into the folder that you have the IE installer in.

Make sure that you have selected to download IE for all versions of Windows that you need it for, and any optional components that you may want.

Download and burn the files to a CD.

Your only other option to get the full installer for IE6 is to order the CD.

Might I suggest that you consider an alternate browser.
The download for either Firefox or the full Mozilla suite is MUCH smaller than IE, and is only 1 file for either.
