Just to add to my last post, a new machine that was freshly installed with Windows 2000 and upgraded to IE5.5SP2 will not install this patch. This is the batch file that I use to upgrade all packages to the latest version. @echo off rem Windows 2000 SP2 w2ksp2srp1 -m -z q314147_w2k_sp3_x86_en.exe -m -z q300845_w2k_sp3_x86_en.exe -m -z q313829_w2k_sp3_x86_en.exe -m -z q311967_w2k_sp3_x86_en.exe -m -z rem IE 5.5 SP2 vbs55nen.exe q321232.exe qchain.exe Of course, the IE patches don't have an equivalent "quiet" install option (ie -m -z). If you install them "quietly", the machine reboots leaving a dogs breakfast of an operating system when it boots, since qchain has not had a chance to run. So you have to do them manually, declining reboots as you go. With this method, I don't need a network connection to upgrade anything. I simply reboot after the "DOS box" closes. - John Airey Internet systems support officer, ITCSD, Royal National Institute of the Blind, Bakewell Road, Peterborough PE2 6XU, Tel.: +44 (0) 1733 375299 Fax: +44 (0) 1733 370848 John.Aireyat_private If Charles Darwin knew a fraction of what scientists know today, he'd never have written the Origin of the Species. > -----Original Message----- > From: .-=D3FC0N/=-.
