Some of the answers give you the correct instructions (do not just go and remove IE7!) so no need to repeat. But just out of interest why are you asking? I did not upgrade to IE7 right away because IE6 was workign well enough, and I just like you I was not sure how to roll back. But since I have upgraded I find IE7's tab functionality is a great addition. Just curious...

Don't remove IE7 some people have had computer problems after removing it.
Instead downalod and run a standalone version of IE6. You can have both IE6 and IE7 running on the same machine.
Check out the following resource.

if you're utilising residing house windows XP, then visit regulate panel, upload or get rid of classes. this function is there interior the classic menu. in case you don't get this icon quickly then swap to classic view (this can be executed interior the acceptable left aspect). Then tick the alternative on the acceptable on no matter if to teach updates. Then scroll each and each of ways down and uninstall the IE7 replace. note: you won't be able to uninstall IE thoroughly. you receives IE6 once you uninstall the IE7 replace. besides the indisputable fact that i propose that you employ different browsers extraordinarily Mozzila Firefox as IE6 is now considered to be very dangerous and has multiple loopholes. Firefox is the most secure browser.

Go to add or remove and uninstall IE7, it will automatically roll back to IE6 If you get any problems as stated in one of the other answers and I doubt thet you will, just re-install IE7 again.

do not uninstall ie7 before trying to get ie6 back..otherwise, you wont have any means on being able to access the internet web pages. Go install service pack 2..that should get your ie6 back.

Yes, go to Microsoft and download it before getting rid of IE7. Or as I did, when I deleted IE7, the program automatically asked me if I wanted to go back and said yes, and then there it was.
