Upgrading to Internet Explorer and Outlook Express 6

The easiest way to upgrade to Internet Explorer 6 and Outlook Express 6 is by downloading and installing the upgrade file from Microsoft (the upgrade for Internet Explorer also upgrades Outlook Express). To do this, use your current version of Internet Explorer to visit the Microsoft home page for Internet Explorer at:

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/products/winfamily/ie/default.mspx

Follow the instructions on the web page to download and install Internet Explorer 6.  If you previously used Internet Explorer as your web browser or Outlook Express as your email client, the upgrade will not affect any settings, bookmarks, or email that you have (although you will be directed to a Microsoft web page the first time you use IE).  Please note that you will be forced to restart your computer once the upgrade is finished.
