Xp X64 - IE7 install 32 and 64 bit ?

[- Bobb -]

I haven't used my x64 Pc in a LONG time, today I booted it and
went to windowsupdate.
I download a LOT of stuff - everything except IE7.
My question :
right now I have IE6 32 bit and 64 bit.
Will I get 2 versions with IE7 also ?

Yes, you'll get two versions.

You get one IE7 for XP Pro x64 at:

AFAIK there is no other.

OK, I blew that one. What are the two versions of IE7? (I dropped XP Pro
x64 a couple of months ago or I would just look)

32-bit and 64-bit.

Yeah, that's a single download. But it actually has both internally, so when
you install it, you get both.

Do you mean you have 2 program files' folders (x86) + (x64) and IE6 in both?
All my 64bit apps have a version/copy in the x86 folder,it happens
automatically.
I was wondering if these were essential?

As far as I know all x64 versions of Windows, XP and Vista,
have 2 versions of Internet Explorer, including XP with IE6.
You have a 64-t version in 'Program Files' and a 32-bit
version in 'Program Files (x86)'. The 32-bit is the default
at installation time. The 64-bit currently has no plug-ins
or add-ons - no Java, no Flash, no ActiveX - NOTHING, it's
just a naked browser.
