I get an error "Internet 9 did not finish installing." I tried the troubleshooting link, but to no avail. It turns of virus protection when intsalling, I am up to date on servive packs and followed the advice to ensure Windows Firewall was on and then tried it with it off. All with no luck.
Dell XPS M1710
Windows 7

Have you tried to get a fresh download of IE9? The download may have bee corrupted. It happens. More often than you might expect.
This link indicates that IE9 is well suited for Windows 7. Try it again.

Thanks for checking. Yes, I did each of these steps. My automatic updates took care of all required components and when I started the installation program, it disabled Microsoft Essentials. I had another virus protection program that I uninstalled.

Hi,
Ensure that your OS is compatible with the IE 9 and no other application is conflicting with it. In most of the cases, the problem will not be a compatibility issue with the OS, but other applications or settings which may conflict with the installation of IE9. Another reason of problems with the source from where you are trying to install the IE9 can be avoided by using proper and genuine installation procedure. Make sure that the CD or the drive containing the setup is safe and not corrupted. If you are downloading it from the Internet, make sure that the firewall settings are accordingly set. If it is a virus issue, then you can avoid it by scanning your computer for viruses using a genuine antivirus software and then you can easily install the IE9.
