When I installed N2 from Win95 way back when, it messed up IE3.0 . The " fix " was to install IE 3.01 or higher on the system. Which version of IE are you using? It didn't mess up IE 4.0 did it? Either way, safest thing to do is to install N2 from DOS. the BGN Expansion Pack is safe to install from Win95, if you have that.

O.K. I remember that when N2 came out, it sometimes caused Internet Explorer to stop working. Now I've installed N2 on my new computer and have the same problem. Is there an easy fix to get Internet Explorer back up and running? Steve

Bart, You hit the Nail on the Head with that Post !!! I "WAS" a IE user until it keep giving me GPF's everytime i used it (10-15 times a session) Well Micro***was no help at all."They blamed it on my ISP" Well i SHIT CANNED IE an installed Net Nav Gold 3.04 well in 2 months of using it for posting,mail,my web page editing. It has had only 1 GPF an that was my fault ! So IE sucks ! An anyone who was foolish enough to install there even worse Beta Release of 4.0 deserves what they get. Do a search on the probs that one causes. Real nightmare when you try to Uninstall it......
<<Real nightmare when you try to Uninstall it......>> Yeah...I understand that's what Microsoft keeps telling the Justice Department! I guess we'll see on January 13th just how far MS is willing to take their argument... Thanks! Bart

In all seriousness, if you're new computer has IE4 as its browser, you are in deep stuff. I do this kind of thing for a living and the only sure fix is to reformat the harddrive. From what I have been able to determine, IE4 is so insidious to the operating system that it is almost impossible to remove. Those other guys were not kidding. I'd just wipe the drive, do a fresh install of Win95/OSR2, and then load Netscape. I think you'll have a lot less headaches in the long run! All the best, Mike Davis -- Michael S.
