I use Firefox but need to install IE for one application. I keep installing and installing IE. I keep getting wrong version when I click run. I had IE 9 64 bit for Windows 7. Finally uninstalled that. I installed IE 9 32 bit for Windows 7.

I am legally blind. I know XP but Windows 7 has different locations and procedures.

How do I find out on 7 what version I have so what I download is compatible. I have been at this for 3 hours and am getting frustrated.

If there is a question mark next to the Tools option at the top right of the screen, click on that and then click on the link for "About Internet Explorer".

Edited to specify the top right of the screen.

I no longer have IE. That does not work in Firefox.

Is there something in Control Panel? It is so different than ZP that I cannot find anything.

I misunderstood and thought you'd reinstalled IE. I've been considering installing Firefox but haven't yet so am not familiar with it. Am pinging Lod who is and Pinguinite. Hopefully they can help.

Sorry I don't really do windows. If you want to try switching over to Linux...

However, one thing you could do which is a half step less drastic than that is to install vmware for windows and inside that, run your familiar WinXP.

Sorry I can't help more.

Maybe I'm confusing Linux with something else but seems I read something somewhere years ago about it involving a time-sharing arrangement among offline computers that worried me. Thanks for the vmware advice though, Pinguinite. And glad to hear your problem was resolved with an IE upgrade, Horse.

No, you read wrong. Linux is a very secure OS, much more so than Windows, which has so many holes in it that it really isn't too smart to have it connected to the internet without a firewall that blocks just about everything.

I've read good reviews about Linux here. Could have been an Urban Myth about the alleged time-sharing started by some competitor. I don't know -- was many years ago. Did you ever hear of any OS that had a time sharing arrangement with offline computers?

Now that I've thought about it more, it might have been an internet service provider that had some sort of time sharing arrangement. I was considering leaving AOL at the time. Sorry for the confusion.

Edited sentence 1.
