My computer is so slow since I've downloaded IE 7, it's not even funny. It is also very awkward to use. How can I get my IE 6 back?
Thanks in advance!

I can't remove programs because that option is locked. It says "mo programs available on the network"

To uninstall Internet Explorer 7 to return to Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP
Click "Start," and then click "Control Panel."
Click "Add or Remove Programs."
Check "Show Updates" at the top of the dialog box.
Scroll down the list and highlight the version of Internet Explorer 7 that you are running, and then click "Change/Remove."
Uninstall that,restart your PC and you are on IE6

Do you remember the law suits years back against Microsoft because Internet Explorer was tied to the Operating System. There is no way to get rid of IE. Therefore, I believe attempting to remove IE will in fact give you the option to go backward to an earlier version. Go to Start | Programs | Add Remove Programs | Add Remove Windows Components and try to get rid of IE. It should offer you the chance to downgrade/ uninstall latest. I believe this is how it worked with previous versions. Good luck.

WOW - sorry to hear that. I downloaded IE7 and it's awesome at least for me because I can use the tabs and my system runs at the same speed as usual. Anyways, you should be able to Go to Add/Remove Programs and remove IE7. Then get a Windows CD or the disk you used when IE 6 was originally installed. Make sure that you can find IE6 before you delete IE7. I could not find it on Microsofts downloads and I'm not sure where to get it other than off of a Windows CD.

frequently Beta something is risky (it quite is why it quite is beta) if your use to IE 7 then carry on with it till an excellent IE 8 version comes out through fact now and back it could crash stuff etc. i for my area like hearth fox yet despite floats your boat guy.

Might want to try a roll back or system restore.
If they don't work, they check out Microsoft KnowledgeBase.
Hope that helps
