ie 6 - uninstall

[John Blair]

I have a problem in that my IE 6 gives me a "page not
found" error for any URL I try to go to. IE can't
connect to the web. Hoewever, my Netscape, Eudora email,
and FTP programs can access the net.

I have a copy if IE6SP1 on CD. Is there a way to disable
IE6 or to un-install it? When I try to run the IE6 setup
program from the CD it says that the version on my machine
is newer than what's on the CD and quits.

I think this all started when I ran ad-aware 6 to check
for spy ware.

I know many of you will say to go to the
http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm site.

I have! Here's what I've done!

1. I've spent several hours reading the various files in
the Knowledge Base to no avail.
2. Reinstalled the winsock.dll
3. Scanned for spyware again using CWShredder
4. I went through the items there and led to the following
items from Microsoft's knowledge base
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=826718 (IE 6)
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=326155
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=812336
http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=315054
when I did the cmd, regsvr32 /u ahiehelp.dll,
error message "LoadLibrary("ahiehelp.dll")
failed - the specified module could not be
found"

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;307164

5. I wnet to: http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm and
downloaded their tool to Repairs Winsock 2 settings -
LSP-Fix from http://www.cexx.org/lspfix.htm

6. From http://mvps.org/winhelp2002/unwanted.htm ran:
RepairTabs.reg
UnlockNoBrowserOptions.reg
WinsockFix.exe (again)

Still trying to solve the problem.

TIA

John
