Willie,
You need to remove all references to IE 6 from your computer. Using an
"uninstall" routine will not do this. This means that you need to edit your
registry. Editing a registry is not for beginners as you can damage the
operation of your computer. Find someone that is experienced and have IE 6
fully cleaned off your system, then you can reinstall 5.5 properly.
If you feel that you can edit the registry then use a registry editing
program like regedit (a dos type program that is in Windows or any free
type that you can find on the Internet searching with Google or some other
search engine.) There are registry editing functions in Norton Systemworks
and V-Com's Fix It as well as other system managers.
