I installed Windows XP, then updated to the newest updates below SP1 right away.  Why it's using the directory .IE5, I don't know.
This'll make an interesting test for broken AV:

Why are you using IE5.0?
The directory name Content.IE5 is used in both IE 5 and IE 6. They just haven't bothered to update it, I guess (possibly for fear of backwards incompatibility).

I formatted my Windows partition today.  Once I get SP1 installed and patched up, I'm going to dd it to a file on my USB drive so I can quickly pull the image back next time it blows up. :)
