I'm on XP sp2. In IE, when I do help, about IE
I get "error 53 not enough storage is available to complete

How do I fix this ?
Thanks Frank F.
Thanks for the info. None of the options fixed my problem.
Looks like I may need to reinstall XP sp2.
All the links for sp2 say to get it from the update site. Well as I have
it installed
it doesn't let me download it.
Is my only option

Yes....you will need to uninstall the SP2 first in order to complete the
repair/reinstall. If you should get the error message that a newer
version is installed, try the following to reset the Registry key to allow
the reinstall.
NOTE FOR SP2: If you have SP2 installed you will first have to uninstall
it before doing the steps below. Then do the Registry steps or run the
utility as described as follows:
Unable to Install Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/304872/en-us
How to reinstall or repair Internet Explorer and Outlook Express in
Windows XP
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;q318378
Scroll down to Setup has detected a newer version of Internet Explorer
already installed on this system. Setup cannot continue. (in red print)
or ..
Step-by-step instructions for a manual fix: If you have SP2, uninstall it
before doing the following:
First, go to Start>Run>type in regedit and hit enter
Click on File on the toolbar and click Export to back up your Registry.
Make sure you make a not of where it is saved in case you need to restore
it.
To reset the IsInstalled value to 0 (zero):
Go to [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE>SOFTWARE>Microsoft>Active Setup>Installed
Components>scroll down to {89820200-ECBD-11cf-8B85-00AA005B4383}]
Here are the "How to" steps to reset the value:
When you have clicked on the above {…} file, scroll down to "IsInstalled"
in the right side panel and double click on it. A dialog box will open
with a window that has a 1 in it. To replace the 1, just type 0 (zero) to
replace the 1, click OK and close.
Then try the install again.
Or ..should you not feel comfortable working in the Registry yourself,
download the utility file at the link below, then double click on it to
run it and it will automatically reset the "IsInstalled" value to 0 (zero)
for you. Then try the install again.
http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm (line 114, right)
After the successful reinstall and the reinstall of the SP2 go immediately
to the Windows Update website and let it scan your computer for any
necessary updates.
Hope this helps.
