STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in Microsoft Internet Explorer version 4.01 SP2 for Windows NT 4.0 and Microsoft Windows NT 4.0 Service Pack 4.



MORE INFORMATION
After you install Windows NT 4.0 SP4, the "Y2ksetup.exe /d" program is run to determine which installed components are year 2000 compliant. When Windows NT 4.0 SP4 was released, Internet Explorer 4.01 Service Pack 1 (SP1) was the latest version of Internet Explorer. The Y2ksetup.exe program does not recognize Internet Explorer 4.01 SP2 so it suggests that you install Internet Explorer 4.01 SP1. For more information about year 2000 compliance for Internet Explorer and other products please see the following Microsoft Web site:
