There are two more methods I use.
1. IEFIX
Type that into http://www.google.com Well explained.
2. IERADICATOR
Again, it's on a google. But in that usage I install Firefox, the run IERADICATOR and then goto Microsoft and install IE 6 again. Then Windows Update.

If you had the PREVIEW pane open, then pests have their ways with the machine. Tools are listed to find and eject them.

I installed Windows 98 Se. To make a long story short, I used a utility which was supposed to back up all info in all identities in OE. And then replace with just one click. Now I can't even open OE. I uninstalled Internet Explorer 6 from add/remove. After I did that I rebooted. Still there, but not listed in add/remove list. I'm a little shocked when you go to MS support, there is very little about IE 6. It always jumps to IE 5 or Windows XP help. I don't want to do another reformat/ install of Windows. Help
PS -I did a nightmarish fix from MS that had you rename main identity and delete others. Didn't work.
