Hardware and Software Requirements

You must build the UNIX, 16-bit, and 32-bit IEAK packages from a computer running Internet Explorer 5 and any Windows 32-bit operating system (except Windows NT 3.51).

Before you start the Internet Explorer Customization wizard, check the amount of disk space that is available in the Program Files folder and on the destination drive (where you build your customized package). The destination drive can be, but isn't required to be, on the same computer.

When you build IEAK packages, you need to add the following to the system requirements for Internet Explorer:

• Depending on the number of components you download, you will need up to 100 MB of disk space.
• For every custom package you generate, you could need an additional 100 MB of disk space. When you build a package for a different media type, such as CD-ROM, it is considered to be a separate package.

For hardware and software requirements for specific versions of Internet Explorer, see the readme files for those versions.

Windows NT 4.0 computers must also be running Service Pack 3 (or higher) On Windows NT 4.0, you must have administrative privileges to install and uninstall Internet Explorer. This includes having administrative privileges the first time users start their computers after installing or uninstalling Internet Explorer.
