Can't repair IE 6

[Honeysweet]

Hi everyone..
Im hopeing someone can help me figure this out..
I have been having trouble with the TAB button on my keyboard. I have
already figured out it isnt the keyboard, since I purchased a new one and
still the same issue.
The TAB function works fine except for when I want to use the tab button to
move the mouse cursor down to a "password" box to type in a password. The
tab button will then make the cursor to skip the password box and highlight
the "submit" or "enter" button. This only happens when I want to type in a
password box.

No one can seem to figure out why this is going on...but someone suggested I
try to repair my IE browser.

Ok, while I tried to do that, I got the following message:

"Internet Explorer 6 could not be repaired.
Please run setup again to reinstall all components."

Now when I click details to see the rest of the message, I received the
following:

" Internet Explorer 6 could not be repaird due to the following errors:
Version 5.50.4134.100 of MSHTMLED.DLL exists, but the version needs to be
greater than 6.0.2800.1100"

Does anyone know what that means and how do I fix it?
I did do some research and tried a fix I saw that said that file may be
corrupted and called for me to copy and paste the file anew, but I still
have a problem.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Im running Windows ME on an HP desktop pc if that helps any.

Thanks in advance..
