If 5.5 working, use it. I've tried both, and successful, but 5.5 is just as good (better?), imho.

I would keep IE5.5 sp2. Used 6, and it's too buggy, so I went back to 5.5. Especially keep 5.5 if you are using outlook express. It's update for OE were nothing but trouble for me.

Outhouse Express IS a bug itself and very susceptible to viruses. IE 6 has proven, to me, to be as stable as IE 5.5. But I don't use Outhouse, so can't comment further in that area.
