Its TOTALLY possible to uninstall it. After you install internet explorer beta on your computer, it will be listed in add/remove programs under WINDOWS INTERNET EXPLORER (not MICROSOFT INTERNET EXPLORER like you'd think)...just remove that and it will revert back to whatever you had previously.
I would strongly avoid the system restore, as this is something easily remedied without needing to use it. Also, some others have mentioned firefox, I use it as well and find it to be a most wonderful browsing experience :)

Go to Microsoft's site and download it, then uninstall IE 7b.
Or you could get a better browser - Firefox.
Internet Explorer is big, slow, insecure (you're almost guaranteed to have some viruses and spyware right now), very out of date, and not customizable.
Drop Internet Explorer from use and get Firefox - sleek, fast, safe, easy to use, up to date, extremely customizable, it'll copy your bookmarks, cookies etc over when you install it.
( Firefox web browser - http://getfirefox.com/ )
Firefox has pop-up blocking built in, and with just one add-on you'll rarely see another banner ad!
(Firefox adblocking add-on - http://adblockplus.org/ )
There are hundreds of Firefox add-ons - all for free ( Firefox Add-ons https://addons.mozilla.org/ )
Download a few anti-virus and anti-spyware programs, oh and a firewall.
( Avg antivirus - http://free.grisoft.com/ ,
Adaware anti-adware - http://www.lavasoftusa.com/software/adaware/ ,
Spywareblaster antispyware - http://www.javacoolsoftware.com/spywareblaster.html ,
Zonealarm firewall - http://www.zonelabs.com/store/content/company/products/znalm/freeDownload.jsp )
It's almost guaranteed you got some nasties through either just using Internet Explorer, or downloading stuff you shouldn't.
Install the programs and scan your computer. You might want to stay offline for this - you're not protected until AFTER you do it.
After that - password protect your computer account. If you use a wireless connection see if you can get it secured (passwords and encryption)
Make sure to update your virus and spyware scanners once a week, and check for updates to your firewall... and operating system.

you cant, its usually the same with windows basic programs, like windows media player, and internet explorer, you cannot go back to older versions. this happened to me with the windows media player 11 beta (dont download it the program runs wayy to slow on the beta)

You can't. You made a choice to use IE 7 and now you are stuck with it.
