Why does NAscar2 corrupt my Internet Explorer?

I have noticed twice...(thank God for the Tape Backup) that if I try to
run Nascar2 in Win95 that it will corrupt my IE3.0. it will not just
gives me a weird looking browser and part of my desktop is on it (see
thru) Time to go restore again.

Anyone else have this problem?

Thought it was just me.......

I had the same thing happen to me last night.  I reinstalled IE to 3.01 and
haven't had the problem since.

Same here! I didn't even realize thats what caused it! Thanks for
posting this. I also found the 3.01 IE beta and installed it.

  Well, I guess I now know what my IE was screwed up. I installed under
Win95 (but run under DOS.) I have the 32-bit AOL 3.0, and ended up
re-installing that to correct IE. I had to un-install IE first to fully
correct it.

I've experienced the same problem on this end... I just re-installed
MSIE3.1 (had it handy) and the problem went away. Sierra setup and Nascar2
all work fine still... so I suspect the problem is an older DLL or VBX
that gets put in place during the install of Nascar2.

Reinstall 3.01 over top of the corrupted version.  It should not give
you any more troubles.
