IE5 & Windows Update errors...

Anyone have a solution to this?

I get scripting errors "do you want to debug" / Error 403 - access forbidden when trying to access windows update on my Win98 side.

I can go to my Win2k side and it comes up fine!? Yes, I know it's a different page...

TIA

Hi,

This article at the Microsoft Knowledge Base covers your problem. I don't know if it will come to that, but they do offer a link to download a new Visual Basic Script component to IE, which may solve it completely. That link takes you here, should you need this download.

Good luck,

Thank you very much Kay for the link & info!

I decided to do a clean install of 98 and got rid of 98 SE!!!

All is well now, but I still say this new WT SUCKS!!!



LOL

Hi George,

I admire your audacity in this, but actually, regardless of why you did it, I agree with your action. Because IE5 is the integrated browser version in Win 98SE, if it heads south and you can't fix it with SFC, or a download from Microsoft like the VB Script thing, you are pretty much toast. If you are at Win 98 FE, you have some options, due to IE 4 being the integrated version.

I hope not to have to install my Upgrade CD until the integrated OS is 5.0, but the available IE is v. 6.0 or better.

Good luck,
