So I do a clean install because I have not done one in a long time, and things were starting to act up.

So scheduled tasks won't work and the solution is to install internet explorer :sick:

So I go to open the IE6 setup that I got a while back, and it says it requires internet explorer 6.0 or higher to run the setup. WTF?! Do they even *TEST* in a normal user environement?! Geez this is the worse MS stupidity I've seen so far. I guess I better go install IE 6 so that I can proceed to install IE 6. :roflmao2: :roflmao2: :roflmao2:

Install IE 6 so you can install IE 6 so you can install IE 6 so you can install IE 6 so you can install IE 6 so you can install IE 6 so you can install IE 6 so you can install IE 6 so you can install IE 6 so you can install IE 6 so you can install IE 6 so you can install IE 6...

It's a vicious loop! Oh NOS!
