SUMMARY
This article contains comments, corrections, and information on known
errors relating to the Microsoft Press book "Official Microsoft Internet
Explorer Book."
The following topics are covered:
- CD-ROM: Setup incorrectly creates Welcome icon for the Macintosh
CAUSE
The Installation program, the Welcome page icon, and other included Web
pages look for the CD-ROM name "IE Starter Kit." However, the CD-ROM
name is actually "Internet Explorer 3.0 " (including the space at the
end of 3.0). Therefore, any references to the disc name "IE Starter Kit"
fail.
WORKAROUND
The following correction label has been added to the CD-ROM insert for
the first printing of this book:
***** BEGIN CORRECTION LABEL *****
ATTENTION MACINTOSH USERS:
After running the Installer program for Microsoft Internet Explorer,
please use the following steps to open the Welcome page instead of
double-clicking the CD-ROM's Welcome icon:
- Insert the CD-ROM.
- Double-click the CD-ROM icon.
- Double-click the Mac folder.
- Double-click the English folder.
- Double-click the Demobin folder.
- Double-click the Welcome.htm icon.
***** END CORRECTION LABEL *****
Correction:
Although the above workaround allows the use of all parts of the
original CD-ROM, Microsoft Press has developed a corrected replacement
CD-ROM that addresses this problem. The correction simply changes the
CD-ROM name for Macintosh computers. To order a replacement CD-ROM,
please call the Microsoft Order Desk at (800) 360-7561. This corrected
CD-ROM will be included with the second and all subsequent printings of
this book.
Microsoft Press is committed to providing informative and accurate
books. All comments and corrections listed above are ready for inclusion
in future printings of this book. If you have a later printing of this
book, it may already contain most or all of the above corrections.
