Soon To Have "NO PC", Please Help Me Slowly & Step-By-Step, LOL LO

[Guest]

I am still having ongoing issues w/my IE Explorer email crashing. I have
tried several of the suggestions on here and am still having the same issue.

It is my understanding that the very next thing I need to do is 100%
completely remove/uninstall IE from my PC but when I go to Start - Control
Panel - Add/Remove Prpgrams I do not see IE listed???

Someone said that I need to then click on components, uncheck the box next
to IE and then go thru the prompts of next, next next, next, next, etc...
etc... and it will be uninstalled or removed but now I did that and tried to
reinstall IE and I get
a prompt that "A Newer version of IE is already installed on the PC"??? I
think that was because someone gave me a link to Windows98 to install but
none-the-less.....if I had already removed and/or uninstalled W-XP IE from
the PC properly then how in the world could I even be getting a prompt like
that message???

How in the world do I remove IE from the system and how can I
confirm that it is completely removed from the system before running a virus
scan and trying to reinstall it again from the WindowsXP disc??? Also,
someone said I may have to completely remove WindowsXP Service pack from the
pc at the add/remove programs, is that so???

I am not good with these things!! This is going on for 3 friggin months!! I
just want WindowsXP, IE and my email to work properly again. I am so
confused. Please help, someone, anyone, Pleeeeeeeeeease!! Thanks

You CANNOT uninstall IE from XP. Yiou can however, repair it.
Take a look here:
