Where can I download Internet Explorer 5.5 Service Pack 2 from? Why should I install it anyway?

Petri Recommended: Basic Up/Down Monitoring that’s Affordable

ipMonitor performs out-of-the-box, up/down monitoring of common applications such as Active Directory®, Microsoft® Exchange, and SQL Server.

Includes an embedded web server and database, for an integrated, simple installation that eliminates the hassle of installing separate components. ipMonitor uses standard SNMP and WMI for agentless, up/down monitoring and provides easy-to-use Web interface and network maps for at-a-glance views of your network.

Although made obsolete by IE 6.0 and now IE 6.0 SP1, Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2 is still a valid option for many users.

Note: Microsoft has stopped supporting Internet Explorer 5.5 SP2. To download IE5.5 SP2 you'll need to find a different link (with Google for example). I found one for you, but I don't know how long it will last because it is an outside link that is NOT controlled by me. Try it and if you find that it stopped working please let me know.
