SUMMARY
When you install Microsoft Office 2000, by default you also install Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.0 (version 5.00.2314.1003). However, Microsoft recently made Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 (version 5.50.4134.600) available for installation.

This article explains the steps necessary to include Internet Explorer 5.5 with the installation of Office 2000 on a computer that is using one of the following operating systems:
 * Microsoft Windows 98
 * Microsoft Windows 95
 * Microsoft Windows NT Workstation version 4.0
 * Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition

If you are deploying Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 along with Microsoft Office 2000 to a computer that is running Microsoft Windows 2000, different steps are required. For additional information about deploying Internet Explorer 5.5 with Office 2000 on computers running Windows 2000, click the article number below to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:

270105 OFF2000: How to Install Internet Explorer 5.5 with Office 2000 on Windows 2000

NOTE: If you attempt to install Microsoft Internet Explorer 5.5 as part of your custom transform (.mst) by using step 15 in the Custom Installation Wizard (CIW) to point to the location of Internet source files, Internet Explorer 5.5 will not be installed on computers that are running Microsoft Windows 2000 Professional.



MORE INFORMATION
Please follow these steps to install Internet Explorer 5.5 with Office 2000:  Create an administrative installation for Office 2000. (See the end of the &quot;More Information&quot; section for information about how to create administrative installations.) On a computer, install Internet Explorer 5.5. On that same computer, start the Custom Installation Wizard (CIW). On that same computer, install Microsoft Internet Explorer Administrative Kit version 5.5 (IEAK), and upgrade the IEAK that is already installed. You can download IEAK 5.5 from the following Microsoft Web site:

http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/ie/bb219517.aspx

 In the Open the MSI File dialog box of the Custom Installation Wizard, locate and select Data1.msi from the root of your administrative installation. Click Next. Continue through the Custom Installation Wizard dialog boxes until you get to the Customize IE 5 Installation Options dialog box. Click Customize. The Microsoft Internet Explorer Customization Wizard (IEAK) is started. In the File Locations dialog box of the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard, make sure to specify a folder in the root of your Office administrative installation. For example, you can use the following:

 \OfficeCD1\IE55_Cust

</li> When you get to the Automatic Version Synchronization dialog box of the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard, click Synchronize All.</li> Complete the remaining dialog boxes in the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard.</li> When you click Finish in the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard, you are returned to the Customize IE 5 Installation Options dialog box of the Custom Installation Wizard.</li> Make sure the path that is specified in the File name and path of Internet Explorer 5 Setup box points to the folder that you specified in the File Locations dialog box of the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard (step 7). For example, if you specified the following in the Internet Explorer Customization Wizard File Locations dialog box:

 \OfficeCD1\IE55_Cust

then the File name and path of Internet Explorer 5 Setup box should have:

.\IE55_Cust\EN\IE5Setup.exe

</li> Complete the remaining dialog boxes in the Custom Installation Wizard.</li> Write down the sample command line that is provided in the last dialog box of the Custom Installation Wizard. You will use it to run Office Setup.IMPORTANT: Although the &quot;Always install with elevated privileges&quot; system policy from the Microsoft Office 2000 Resource Kit is in effect when you run Setup for Office, Internet Explorer Setup fails if a user does not have local administrative rights when the operating system is Microsoft Windows NT 4.0. This, in turn, causes a failure in the Office Setup routine.

</li> Run Setup from your Office administrative installation, using the transform that you created in the Custom Installation Wizard.</li></ol>
