I too was unable to update to IE6.0 after reinstalling Windows ME with an old version
of IE 5.5. I had lost all my critical updates. The IE6.0 sp1 update would reach
93% and fail. Nothing seemed to work until I followed the suggestion of using IE5.5
with service pack as an intermediate step. This installed. I still had the IE6.0
sp1 folder, and I simply double clicked on the IE6.0setup file in the folder and
it finally successfully installed. This was after months of frustration. I did
the reinstalls in safe mode, but this may not be necessary. It's the intermediate
step with IE5.5 that is the key.
