Whoa, slow down! You can have more than one browser on your computer... I have 3!
Just let IE7 sit in the corner and try out Firefox... maybe even Opera too.
I'm a huge fan of Firefox, here's my little blurb (you might get a new tip):
Free, fast, a small 5mb download, Firefox blocks pop-ups and sites from secretly installing programs on your computer. It will copy over your settings from other browsers (cookies, settings, bookmarks). Firefox is powerful too, it's more up-to-date than even IE7 according to the web standards (w3.org).
The main reason I like Firefox is because it's customizable.
Why is customizability important?
Imagine being able to do 2 small things and never seeing a banner ad, flash ad or an iframe ad again? (Remember, pop-ups are already gone)
Imagine being able to pause your computer's music player when the phone rings without having to switch to it?
Firefox puts the power back in your hands!

You can have both Internet Explorer 7 and Firefox on your computer (im doing it right now). But if you wish to remove it put in your Windows disc and then goto Add Or Remove Windows Extras.

You perhaps ought to establish IE6, then uninstall IE7, then Re-set up IE7 sparkling. you need to continually make a backup of gadget state and each thing on an exterior Medium, Tape, Zip, Floppy, CD-r, DvD-r.

Go to Control Panel
Click on ADD/REMOVE Programs
Scroll down the list to IE7
Click on Remove

Pop over to this website: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Uninstalling_Internet_Explorer
It gives excellent information on the whole process.
