Erratic IE 5 behaviour may tempt you to uninstall the browser. But before you do that, try to fix it: Open the Add/Remove applet from Control Panel, and select MS IE 5.

The repair tool (available in all versions of Windows 9x prior to 98 SE) checks the program's files to confirm that they're up to date and properly configured in the Registry. If problems persist, your best option is to download the latest version of the browser from www.microsoft.com/ie.
