I started to download the new IE 6.something when the powerstrip was pulled
out of the wall. There was a warning saying something about not restarting
your computer. so now i cant even go to the Windows Update page without this
warning, "Installation of the component failed. Please try again later or
choose 'Windows update' under the Internet Explorer 'Tools' menu to install
this component." I can only click 'OK' and when i do it brings me to the
Microsoft Windows Update page, but cannot scan past 0%. I've waited,
restarted, and followed the instructions. I also went into the control panel
-> add/remove programs and tried to repair IE, but that didnt work either.
Im not computer savy so if someone could help me, it would be much
appreciated. Thanks.
