iframe.dll broblem

[Guest]

I installed ie7 beta to test how our development sites work with new browser.
After install i had error message "iframe.dll not found".
I uninstalled ie7 and still iframe.dll not found.
I tried to install ie6 again, but cant install it anymore.
cant go to microsoft update... browser wont work...

How can i install ie6 again?

Hi,
When you uninstalled IE7, IE6 should have been there. You should not have to
reinstall IE6.

I don't have iframe.dll with either IE6 or IE7. I'm wondering if a
third-party program installed iframe.dll on your system. You might try this
troubleshooting method to see which program is looking for iframe.dll:

Internet Explorer: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=276393

When does the error message "iframe.dll not found" appear?

Can you access Internet Explorer if you startup in Safe Mode with
Networking?

Could iframe.dll be malware related?

I didn't even notice that. I just assumed it was another ieframe.dll
incident. Given the other typo in the Subject line it seemed like
a safe assumption. <w>

E.g. probably the new version of iexplore.exe is still there
but due to some perhaps ill-advised repair attempt
none of the supporting IE7 .dlls remain.

I have suggested to others before that they try diagnosing
the specific details for their symptom but haven't had a reply.

Oops. I guess I'm thinking of threads in private newsgroups.
Google can't find one that I am remembering (better than the one
in ie6.setup.) <w>


Hmm... try this for a hypothesis to fit the facts as given so far:

I'm still assuming that meant ieframe.dll ... not found <w>

Was a reboot not done to copy the new system .dlls?
That might have left the new iexplore.exe in %ProgramFiles%
without its supporting .dlls.

Or was some "security software" active at the time of install
preventing the install of the new .dlls into the System32 directory?

Etc.


FWIW

Thanks. That's a very logical assumption. ;-)

Have you tried to reinstall IE7? This google groups search didn't turn up
much useful information:
http://groups.google.com/group/micr...eframe.dll&qt_g=1&searchnow=Search+this+group

(Shortened) http://snipurl.com/ieframeIE7

There was one post mentioning that an antivirus program had removed
ieframe.dll. When installing IE7 (or other programs) AV and some other
security programs should be shut down.
