[color=blue][/color]hello can anyone tell me please if i can get internet explorer6 to run on red hat8 cause optus cable wants this to f*&^ing work.....dogs

Dunno about IE6, but IE 5.5 can be made to run with Wine, theres a link to the instructions in the Compatibility database:

http://www.linuxcompatible.org/compdet.php?id=10558

But why are they so insistent you run IE and not a browser with a native Linux version like Opera or even Mozilla?

;( it's part of the installation process on the cd i got with broadband connection process but have f#$%ed with it for most of last night and today , got slow pc and got fed up with waiting for wine to think about even opening some files and folders whilst i was using rh8, had stuff-all problems when i used win98 but still got sandbagged when i tried to network it to main pc running w2k ,so now constructing router project of my own ......
just thought you might be interested!
