SYMPTOMS
When you upgrade Internet Explorer 4.0 to Internet Explorer 4.01, your previously installed plug-ins no longer work.



CAUSE
This behavior occurs because previously installed plug-ins are not copied from the "Internet Explorer 4.0:Plugins" folder to the "Internet Explorer 4.01:Plugins" folder during Internet Explorer 4.01 Setup.



RESOLUTION
To work around this behavior, use either of the following methods:


 * Manually copy the plug-ins from the "Internet Explorer 4.0:Plugins folder to the "Internet Explorer 4.01:Plugins" folder.
 * Install the plug-ins again.
