trouble connecting with IE + unable to install network com..

[oompa_l]

I may be partly responsible for the problem - I may have accidentally deleted
the sp3 folder in my root c drive thinking it was not needed. I have been
having trouble connecting to the network as well as getting on the internet
with IE even though I have no problem with firefox. This troubles me
especially since I can't get windows updates now...

I noticed ther were some extra components that were unchecked in the network
advanced window menu and I thought they might be relevant. When I try to
install them windows looks for dll files -and the strange part is that they
are there - but for some reason it will not accept them. I have tried
reinstalling sp3 and doing virus checks but nothing weird is coming up....any
ideas?

If that a recent change, then try System Restore and see if that will help
solve the issue.
What Version of IE you are using?
