Anyone else had trouble with IE5.5 ??
I recently downloaded the new IE5.5 from the Microsoft website on to my desk top and my lap top. BOTH then had trouble virtually every time I used IE it would say "performed an illegal operation" and shut down. I uninstalled it from both and they are both working fine again.
Anyone else had similar trouble?? seems odd, but it was the same on both computers??

InFinRetirement,it's no longer a BETA version, I don't know if it was when you downloaded it LAME. If it was then perhaps that could be the cause of your snags. I downloaded from here just a fortnight ago and it works fine - fingers crossed.

ps. Also on the update site, windows media player 7 is no longer a BETA version, and it's a really huge improvement over previous versions, especially for CD/MP3 management and recording.
Good luck, Scally

Scallywag,
I downloaded it the first day it was available, saw an item on the news about it's full release, as you say not beta, then checked the site and it was there already so I downloaded it that day.
Maybe I will try it again now?

Slightly related, I cannot get McAFee Virus scan clinic to run online with IE5.1.
Contacted their tech site and was told that it will only run with IE5.5. Since I have been aware of the above complaints for some time, I don't want to down load it. However having paid my $29.95 to use the online scan facility at McAfee then it looks like lost money. (Have tried purging all temp and internet temp files, but the scan just freezes at 1/3rd complete).

BoeingBoy,
Thank you for that, actually I have gone back to IE5, not 5.01 as I previously incorrectly said, in view of your news think I will stay there for now, as I have McAfee Clinic too and have their Activeshield as my antivirus protection.
