When I start IE version 6 and go to my homepage MSN it tells me I need to
upgrade to version 5 or higher. I am already using version 6 but its not
being recognized.
Can someone help me to fix this?
Thank you so much.

You may want to repost your question in a Windows IE newsgroup. This one
you've posted in is for the Macintosh version of IE, which never made it
to version 6.

If you wouldn't mind telling us how you came to post your question here,
we'd appreciate it. The MVP has been trying to figure out why so many
Windows IE questions are appearing in a Macintosh newsgroup, so any
information you can give would be helpful.

Thank you.

Indeed. Windows IE messages continue pouring down here and I can't
figure out how people ended up inthe wrong newsgroup :-\
Any information would be helpful,

This group is the group for IE for Mac actually. It looks like a lot of
people make the same mistake these days so I'm starting to wonder
whether the MS site has a bad link somewhere.

Could you please let me know what link lead you to this newsgroup??
Thanks,

Corentin

I'm afraid this was my fault. It is clearly marked Macintosh but I was
looking for IE problems and this is the first IE I saw.  Here is the link:

Well at least in your case we know why you ended up in the wrong forum
then ;-)
Thanks for letting me know,
