I've installed a customized version of IE 5.5 with the Internet Options disabled. The problem is I can't get into it now. This is a Win98 PC. I uninstalled the 5.5 and updated the newest 5.5 off the Net. I'm still not able to get in. I restoredthe PC from a registry backup from a couple of months ago thinking it was an registry setting and I still can't get into it. Is their a file that needs to be deleted so I can get into the Internet Options? By the way, I can't get into it from the Control Panel either.

Sound like you either ran Tweak or poledit. If you get poledit off of the Win98 CD and run the template for control panel and IEAK, I think you will find that you have disabled these features. Poledit will allow you to correct this problem.

You may have also run Tweak. Look in the Windows/System folder and see if Tweak exist. If it does, you may find that you disabled the control panel here.

Unfortunately neither one of these ideas worked. What I ended up doing is I created another IEAK 5.5 install with the Internet Options enabled and re-installed it on the PC in question. I got back the Internet Options in the Control Panel but not in IE 5.5. That was close enough for me. Thanks for your suggestions I would have never thought of that. I'm going to give you the points anyway.
