Advice needed

I need to remove IE and re-install it. Here's the question. If I do this, will Outlook Express be affected?

Can I remove Internet Explorer without OE? On the add/remove programs in Control Panel, it says Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 and Internet Tools. If I remove it will this affect my current Outlook Express. What are Internet Tools???

Thanks

can't say i'm 100% about this 'cos i dont use outlook for anything so i'm open to correction, but if you're just gonna upgrade IE then it shouldn't make any difference to outlook at all, it might even upgrade it too. if you're installin IE6, it will tell you what it's gonna install and it should give you the option of a custom setup where you can choose the components you want.

I'll try it.

Thanks

You don't need to uninstall any IE version to upgrade (i.e. to go UP in number). Installing IE 6 will also upgrade Lookout Express to version 6, but will not affect your e-mail, filters, address book etc.
