Download location information is damaged

[Dan]

I recently lost access to IE on my computer. I attempted
to reinstall it from the web, and when I did I got the
message 'The download location information is damaged.
Please clear your internet explorer browser cache and
retry setup' What gives, and how do I fix it?

Mike, I tried what it is shown on this website. I rebooted the
computer, and tried to install Explorer 6 again. I get the exact same
message. Is there such a big difference between Expl 5 and 6 in terms
of speed anyway?

Thanks. Denis.
