    Anybody got a link to a site wher I can download the full network installable version of this product? I have searched Microsoft, but all I am getting is the "update" I need for my machine. I wish to download the full set of files and run the install from a central server. Any help appreciated.

    Would this be Internet Explorer 6, im not sure you can full download it anymore(well i do but im not linking you to it), instead im going to introduce you to Mozilla Firebird - a far superior Web Browser - http://downloads.us-east3.mozdev.org/seb/MozillaFirebird-0.7-setup.exe

    Its only 6MB big, more info here http://www.mozilla.org/products/firebird/

    The Full install for IE is around 60MB if not more, and is riddled with secuirty issues

    I'd recommend using the IEAK to build yourself a custom number. All my clients have BEECHER.NET in their MSIE and Outlook title bars now, like it or not. :)

    I use Mozilla myself, most of the time. But I do need the link as I have a number of clients who insist on IE. SO if you have a link I would appreciate it.

    Am I only the only one here bored senseless with browser advocacy? I dunno, sounds to me like Hobart knows what's he's doing, in which case I'm guessing he'd ask if he wanted another browser? How about it Hobart?

    Yea Adam. Don't disagree. I (part time) manage a group of about 50 - 70 users. I need to do a complete update on their browsers. They use IE. Rather than eat up the DSL with multiple downloads I was trying... well you know. I can understand the issues around IE6 and the general fcuk MS type posts. But If somebody says "I have a link, but I'm not giving it to you," becuse IE is sh*t. Well, yes let me be the judge of that or you will just sightly p**s me off. But, each to thier own and all that blah blah blah

    Fed up with browser advocacy myself. Advocacy now think later.
    All my clients have BEECHER.NET in their MSIE and Outlook title bars now, like it or not.
    Yikes!
