How can I tell if I have Web
Folders installed already?
Web Folders appear in Windows Explorer under "My Computer", usually
just below the Scheduled Tasks folder (see right).
If you do not have Web Folders install, follow the instructions below
to install the Web Folders option in IE5.
How long will it take?
There are several small, quick installation and configuration steps, each
one taking only a few seconds. The only step that will take a few minutes
is Step Six, the download and install of the Microsoft Web Folders option
for IE5, which, if you need it, will require five minutes or more, depending
on the speed of your Internet connection.
