Thanks very much for the advice, PA Bear - from now on I will stick to
critical downloads via main Microsoft Updates site.

Also, thanks for the link to OE newsgroup - I've now subscribed to it and
hope that it will help in any other (hopefully very few...) problems
relating to OE?!

You already have Q837009 installed.

Please rely on Windows Update for updates your system needs, rather than
picking & choosing ones you /think/ it needs.

Hi Bill,
          Thanks for the reply post!

Having looked at the version installed in Help (as you suggested) it shows
version 6.00.280.1123. This would mean that I am running OE6 with IE
version 6.0.2800.1106.xpsp2.030422-1633.

 Do either of these versions have flaws that make them incompatible? Both
are updated via Microsoft Official Updates site and I have no problems
updating from the site. My problem seems to come when installing individual
patches...
