Hi all,

Ive just installed IE7...and I don't like it...one bit, but the tab browsing is good...

Is it possible to revert back to IE6, shouldn't the setup file be some were in windows?

Ive seen this done though Command prompt or something like that...?

How do you do it?

(System restore is not an option)

Thank you

Masmith

IE6 will be available somewhere on the net, just uninstall IE7, and Install 6. Shouldn't be a problem.

Merry Xmas!

To uninstall Internet Explorer 7 and restore Internet Explorer 6 when using Windows XP or Windows Server 2003

  1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel.
  2. Click Add or Remove Programs.
  3. Scroll down to Windows Internet Explorer 7, click it, and then click Change/Remove.

If you cannot find Internet Explorer 7 in Add or Remove Programs, click Start, click Run, type %windir%\ie7\spuninst\spuninst.exe, and then press ENTER.

Note: %windir% is the location of your Windows directory, which can usually be found at C:\Windows. To do this, you need to have "view hidden folders" enabled.
