How to get a new version of Internet Explorer for my Pocke..

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.pocketpc (More info?)

My goal is to be able to use my PDA to view yahoo's WebPages in the smaller
screen format.

When I use my Pocket PC browser to view http://mobile.yahoo.com the page
loads it tells me I need a newer version of Internet Explorer.

I checked my iPAQ and it says my version is IE4.0 so I'm trying to figure
out if there's a more current version for my iPAQ.

I've been to the HP website but can't find anything.
I've been to the Microsoft website but can't find anything.

What are others using?

There is another option its called MultiIE and it adds to your Pocket
Explorer. Giving you better control, Mimicing other envirnoments, Dynamicly
sizing screens to fit your PDA, and allowing you to have multiply pages open
at one time....
