I have a client that has a corrupted ie browser. I want to get a new copy
and install it but all i see on the download page for ie is a file that is
485kbs long. I cannot imagine the browser is that small. Where can i get a
full copy of it to install since he cannot get to the internet to download
it?

thanks
robin

There is no such thing as SP2 for Win 98 (and probably never will be)
The latest thing in IE there is IE6SP1.
I see Taurarian has already pointed you at the best instructions I know of
for a full download of IE from MS.
(one other option if you don't have bandwidth available is to install AOL
(yes, I know) and then uninstall it - it installs IE6 and then leaves it
behind on the way out.
