What do you see?

It's already there - you don't need to install it.

But wait, I can't install Service Patches to VB6 because it says it can't find MDAC 2.5 or greater!! If the MDAC is already there, then how can I get my Service Patches to recognize them?

Early Adopter
I have the same thing here with a medical viewing application which either wants to install MDAC 2.8 or quit. MDAC installation fails, so the app will never launch.
I ended up downloading VirtualPC and installing XP on it for legacy apps. -
I've seen some other message boards where users have done things like copy the DLL and register it in a command prompt and other weirdness. But I would think that MS would provide a more straightforward approach.
