Title: IE 5.5 SP-1 OFFLINE Installation for slipstream
Post by: Anonymous on April 12, 2001, 08:33:58 AM

Where can I download the files for IE 5.5 SP-1 as an offline installation (I.e for installation on a system that doesn\'t have internet access). On MS download site I can only find the installer for the online version. Or is there maybe a way to intercept the downloaded files before they are installed???

After you upgrade to IE 5.5, the uncompressed upgrading files are still saved in the windows upgrading directory(sorry I cann\'t remember exactly where they are located). So, you can make a copy of these files and re-use them next time.
In other words, it is not necessary to do an online upgrading each time.
