BROWSER
If the product icon does not appear on your desktop, or if an error occurs while the program is running (for e.g. media item not displaying properly in Internet Explorer), you may have to reinstall your browser. To do this, just follow the Browser Reinstallation instructions.
========================
IE BROWSER REINSTALLATION:
If you have Win95A or Win95 OSR2, and your Internet Explorer Browser is older than version IE 4.0 Service Pack 1, you should install the IE5 version. You can upgrade your browser from your CD or DVD-ROM
To install IE5:
1. From your CD or DVD-ROM go to the IE5 directory (IE/0009) and run ie5setup.exe. (This will install the newer version of IE 5.0.).
If you are using a non-English version of Windows, to install IE5:
1. Download IE5 from the Microsoft download site (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie) in the language of your choice and install it onto your computer.
With the newer IE5.0 version, you can purchase and download books from our online VersabookStore and access many special offers and features.
=============================
IE5 BROWSER COMPLICATIONS
If you experience media problems or your product crashes when opening articles, it is mostly likely due to an earlier version of Microsoft browser IE5.0. If you have an earlier version of IE5 than IE 5.00.2314.1003, you should:
1. Uninstall your old Internet Explorer.
2. Reboot your computer.
3. From your CD or DVD-ROM, go to the IE5 directory (IE/0009) and run ie5setup.exe. (This will install the newer version of IE 5.0.).

1. Uninstall your old Internet Explorer.
2. Reboot your computer.
3. Download IE5 from the Microsoft download site (http://www.microsoft.com/windows/ie) in the language of your choice and install it onto your computer.
