How do I restore IE 6 100% back to factory fresh settings?

[Guest]

I messed up IE and need it to go back to its freshly installed state before I
ever touched it.

Thanks!

That won't do it. It will retain most user settings.

Tools | Internet Options | Programs | Restore Web Settings
You may or may not want to uncheck Restore Home Page.

So...that button means more than what the caption next to it suggests: "You
can reset Internet Explorer to the default home and search pages." Good to
know.
