Default need to uninstall and reinstall IE

I have a situation where we can't access our church's webpage or our email
from the church's computers. I am wanting to uninstall Internet Explorer and
reintall it but don't have the install files. Is there a place to get them? I
have searched Microsoft's site and found updates, patchs but no installation
files.

Are you sure Internet Explorer is the problem?

For ME there should be a localized version of IE6 at
http://download.davidata.net.
But I am not sure about uninstalling the previous version... Probably you
will have to do an "install over"

Uninstalling and reinstalling is not likely to help.

Check for a file named HOSTS with no extension (not Hosts.sam). It may be a
hidden file. Open it with Notepad and remove any line referencing the site.
Or, rename HOSTS to OLDHOSTS
