    I'm unsure but I'm assuming if you go add/remove it will give you the option to

    yea, if you updated it, you should be able to repair it from add\remove progs.

    otherwise (im assuming you have IE6) since its XP, download the ie6 upgrage and install it, it will refresh everything for you.

    In fact, running ie 5.5 insaller may work too

    In add remove the option isnt there ,and you cant select it ,its kinda blurred out with that "dont fuk wid dis" look on it.

    Damn thing is gone mad and not reinstalling XP way to lazy for that.

    well, either downgrade or refresh IE.

    only options really, did you log on as admin when u tried reparing it from add\remove

    also, you could try add\remove windows components, I dont know for sure if IE is in there, if it is you could uncheck it, reboot and check it.

    My IE6 decided that I could no longer view the source of pages. Stupid thing....
