I did delete the windows update files folder and that brought me to the initial internet explorer setup page, after i click on "install typical components, it says it can't connect.
I've heard about a registry value that might help, but i don't know if it'll mean the computer can get on the net to download the rest of the internet explorer files.
Is it possible to download the entire program to my laptop
and transfer it by flash drive to my desktop and install that way?
