ive got a fresh install of win98 and it has Internet Explorer 4.0 on it. there are script errors everywhere and i can't do a windows update because the text on the download page is EXTREMELY small. how can i upgrade IE4? I need real answers from someone who knows what they're talking about.

the text size isnt the problem. the reason its so small is because the browser version is too old for the microsoft website to work with. view-text size doesn't help at all. is there a direct-link someone can make me that goes straight to the download?

btw, the firefox installer won't load, ive tried re-downloading the install file, it just says "opening archive" or whatever, then nothing happens.

First, go to http://www.microsoft.com and click on DOWNLOAD
Scroll down to the Internet Explorer section and click on
Internet Explorer 6 with SP1. (Dpn't get 7)
After downloading that, RUN IT while you are still on-line. This will download the rest of it.
Then restart and get your Windows Updates

you get script errors cuz your browser is old :( don't use IE4 it's not safe to to use it..I'm not even sure if mozzila will support it, try to get firefox or opera, don't bother with windows update microsoft won't support it anymore
"July 11, 2006 will bring a close to Extended Support for Windows 98, Windows 98 Second Edition, and Windows Me"
p.s. don't listen to danuitti, you can't install IE7 on windows 98,why some people are so stupid?

Download and install the firefox browser http://www.mozilla.com/ with this functional browser you can go to the microsoft website and download the internet explorer upgrade at http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=1e1550cb-5e5d-48f5-b02b-20b602228de6&DisplayLang=en
To address the small type on the website reduce your computers resolution to 640x480. Right click on your desktop and select properties. Click on the settings tab to see the adjustment bar.

goto best buy, office max or home depot. pick up a peoplepc cd-rom. put the disk in and go into my computer., cancel the install if it comes up. then right click peoplepc oneline and goto explore. open a folder called IE, then folder EN. Then open ie6setup.exe. :) if you are still getting scripting errors, explore the cd-rom again, but go into utilities and open scr56en.exe for scripting errors. hope this helps.

Have you tried increasing the text size? To do so, click View, Text Size.

Go to Google, search for IE ^ download. Should be at top of list.
1st answer is correct as far as text size.
