Microsoft Baseline Security Analyzer V1.2.1

I am trying to install this but it keeps asking me to download IE because my version is below 5.1. I am running v6 off of SP2.

Any ideas? Was I supposed to install this before SP2?

Prior to the installation of SP2 one shoudl do the following:
(a) cleanup HDD of any unnecessary files etc
(b) cleanup registry an dcompact it
(c) check pagefile sizing for your system
(d) defragg your HDD
Additionally, obtain the latest versions of
(a) MSBA
(b) MSXML parser

The first 5 steps are irrelevent to me. Just tell me if those last 2 things, whatever they are, are the fix to my problem of not getting the setup to see IE is already installed.
