IE7 Beta

[tcebob]

Can't find a group but need a little help. Downloaded Beta2 yesterday and installed.
Worked fine and there are some major improvements. However, I needed to reinstall xp this
am, slipstreamed a disk with sp2, and it went smoothly. But something happened to IE7 so
that I got the error "the procedure entry point internetgetsecurityinfo by urlw could not
be located in the dynamic link library wininet.dll." Possibly overwritten. So tried
reinstall and was directed to uninstall first. Couldn't because it did not appear in the
expected place. However, made startling discovery that copying iexplore.exe (6) in from
another location works just fine. So at least I have my internet back.

How can I fix wininet.dll so ie7 will work again? Or completely uninstall it so it can be
reinstalled?

Ok, Frank, but it's hard to resist. I usually call folks by their first name and that's
the one he told me. Be real confusing if he came from Massachusetts.
