Trying to in stall this onto my PC and an error message comes up saying "cant install due to there being a newer version installed on this PC'

There isnt one on there!

Help?

Internet "Explorer"...

Why would you actually try and want to install IE? It's fucking useless. :)

Get yourself Iron (Chrome but better), Safari or Opera innit. They're all better, quicker and just generally designed to browse, not randomly interpret code and fuck it up.

Iron (http://www.srware.net/en/software_srware_iron.php)
Opera (http://www.opera.com/)
Safari (http://www.apple.com/safari/)

Edit: Or Firefox of course, which despite being slower than the ones above, is my browser of choice for it's fantasticalness.

I have firefox at the minute Bazza.

However, when i type the web address into the address bar and press enter, it doesnt do anything.

At the minute i have to type what im looking for into the google search bar thing and its getting on my tits.

Go to the start button and click on run (or search and click on it if running vista).

Type the following into the run box:

iexplore.exe

Then click enter. Confirm if IE starts or fails to do so.

Go to start, type in cmd.

Type IamaflidbecauseIcan'tpostintherightsection.bat

Then press enter.

Oh, and the newer version is probably that new choose your own browser release thingymebob.

:D

Si, it finds it but it has an error daying it has stopped working.

Here is a screenshot of the files:

I'd download from http://www.microsoft.com/nz/windows/internet-explorer/default.aspx

and reinstall. .Old files/folders are from when you customise a vista install.

still coming up with the message mate

Word.

Or should that be winword.exe?

I downloaded google chrome and quite liked it.

Until I realised that it was awkward working without a google toolbar, you'd have thought that google would make it possible to use their own product.

Opera is a pretty good browser, and it also has face gestures if you've got a webcam!

Chrome is great, fast as fuck and I never use toolbars so its not a problem for me, Chrome is in the real world more than twice the speed of Firefox and IE and theres no memory leakage in Flash games and apps.

Nice.

Oh there is when you start doing stupid stuff like have 5 or 6 tabs open each running Flash applications.

Ah I haven't encountered that yet Sam never more than 2 so far.

My job requires a lot of research on the net and so having a google toolbar is very helpful. I might just switch to opera for work and chrome for the non-work stuff.

The downside is you share everything you do with the all seeing G. I don't know why people who love Chrome don't use Iron, which is the same, but without logging everything you do with Google. It's practically spyware imo and Google have enough info on everyone as it is. In my opinion of course. :)

Doesn't bother me, I don't like hats made of tin foil.
