Be thankful! IE7 is so full of bugs it aint funny! Thats why its the first IE that comes with an uninstaller! I would suspect that your problem may be an earlier version of windows! IE7 will only install in XP.

Hi,
For installating IE 7 you need to have Windows XP with Service Pack 2 (SP2) and 64 MB Memory. Just check if you have both these available on your laptop. Just right click on the "My Computer" icon on your Desktop and select "Properties" to check this. You will find if you have Windows XP and Service Pack 2 and the Memory (RAM) under "System".

If you are happy with the version of the browser you are using don't bother changing, there are many people with old versions of IE and all get along fine with them.

Try Firefox, its more secure than IE and uses less resources.
http://www.mozilla.com/ - Firefox web browser.

It sounds like you may have already loaded a lot of software, and may have used most of your hard disk capacity or memory capacity. Take to computer to a qualified technician to be sure.
