IE ver 6 patch download problem

D

Debbie

I downloaded the patch Q323759 for the GreyMagic Internet
problem. My version of IE is 6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2.030422-
1633. So I chose the exe for ver 6. After the download,
it said I need the 6.0 version of IE to install this
patch. I thought that's the version I have?! What do I
do? Thanks

Also, the article give you some possibilities to install using some defined
switches.
The last one may be what you need.
Could be also that you do not need this patch. If you use the switch make
sure you know that's what you want.

Quote
You must restart your computer after you apply this update. This package
supports the following switches:
/q Specifies quiet mode, or suppresses prompts, when files are being
extracted.
/q:u Specifies user-quiet mode, which presents some dialog boxes to the
user.
/q:a Specifies administrator-quiet mode, which does not present any dialog
boxes to the user.
/t:<path> Specifies the target folder for extracting files.
/c Extracts the files without installing them.
/c:<path> Specifies the path and name of the Setup .inf or .exe file.
/r:n Never restarts the computer after installation.
/r:i Restart if a restart is required - Automatically restarts the computer
if it is required to complete installation.
/r:a Always restarts the computer after installation.
/r:s Restarts the computer after installation without prompting the user.
/n:v No version checking - Install the program over any previous version.
Unquote.

For example, the file name /q:a /r:n command installs the update without any
user intervention, and then it does not force the computer to restart.

WARNING: Your computer is vulnerable until you restart it and log on as an
administrator to complete the installation.

NOTE: You cannot successfully install this update on Windows XP-based
computers in non-interactive mode (for example, by using Windows Task
Scheduler, Microsoft Systems Management Server, or Tivoli software from from
IBM). Microsoft is researching this problem and will post more information
in this article when the information becomes available.
