I have installed IE4 and theres no Uninstall on the Add/remove programs, i tryed to delete it, but
when i try to install it again, a message box say " the installation program could not actualize current IE version. You will have to uninstall this version of IE.
Installation program can not continue" , i have errased all files, but i think it could be something on the winreg, or win.ini, or a file in windows/system... please help me to remove or reinstall this program

Every time you Install a program it save a file in the same folder you install the program to call unwise.exe. This is the file ADD/REMOVE uses to remove a program. If you deleted this file then all you can do is search the reg. for IE4 or Internet Explorer 4.0, and see what you can see. make sure you back it up befour you deleted any keys.
Sorry I couldn't be of more help.

Helloooooo.

If you're running W98 you can't uninstall IE4 by normal means, it's integrated in the OS

Thanks for the lesson Paul

I assumed (bad word) it would be listed in add/remove
