I have been running IE 6.0 since early testing of Windows XP on my test machine and IE 6.0 beta with Windows 2000 on this machine for about 2 months. I have NOT had any problems with either. Just let it be known that the Java engine is NOT supplied as part of it. You will need to go to Windows Update for “VM” or to Sun for their Java engine. Some sites require that you have one or the other. Most sites that require it with offer to link you to a site to down load a copy.

Dave..I installed 6.0 this afternoon on my computer…so far have gotten 1 error popup..via the
Explorer Error Reporting popup…maybe just a random thing..having email server problems at same time, so could be connected to OE 6…who knows. I forgot to write down what the error was all about
Other than that, no problems…*fingers and toes crossed*
