Folks, My google-fu is failing me today.

Anyone have a link to a download for VS 6.0 Sp5?
I can download SP6 but the bean counters say it has to be SP5.

Thanks

Try this: External Source

I don't know if the Merge Modules will help you:

Visual Studio 6.0 Merge Modules

Otherwise, I would contact MSDN support, they should get back to you quickly, there may be a fault in why it is not available, or they may link you to the resource.

Been there, I get "We are sorry to inform you the Visual Studio 6 SP5 ISN'T AVAILABLE from the Developers/Distributors server."

Would the "mal" prefix to this site's name be relevant?

P.S. Forgot to put <scarcasm> tags on the above.

Apologies it must be deprecated. It may be worth speaking to the bean counters again. Microsoft may have sufficient reasons to stop the distribution of SP5.

filewatcher.com has about 10 ftp servers listed with links to vs6sp5.exe.
