I’m using Internet Explorer 6 and the theme isn’t working properly?

My Wordpress theme uploader isn’t working, can you help?
You need to know your hosting space login information and fill in the fields that show up on the theme upload screen (Appearance > Add New Themes). Ask your host if you do not know this information (it is usually the same information as your cPanel login). Some hosts also require the correct permissions being manually set on some folders, use an FTP client or your hosting cPanel to set permissions on “wp-content” and “wp-content/themes” folders to 777.
