    Does anyone knows why the June 2001 Platform SDK fails to install on a Win2K/SP2 machine with IE6/VC++6 with SP4. I have downloaded the full SDK and all files where ok. After setting all the install options when I click on the Install Now button I always get an error with invalid helper object or something like that and fails to install. Microsoft had to do another stupid change in the installer, I don't know why they did not used the Windows Installer instead of this stupid online installer.

      I've seen the online installer update the installer itself before continuing before. Perhaps the version of installer you have on your system is incompatible.
