Hello MVP's and other IT Knowledge purveyors,

My client requested 3 new PC's with Vista and Office 2007. I complied
and set them up on the SBS 2003 Domain.

(There was a problem saving Office 2007 documents to the SBS Shares
but that is another question)

Our issue is that a 3rd party Application can only be executed in an
IE6 environment! Tsk tsk with the 3rd Part App's ...

Is there a feasible way to uninstall IE7 and reintegrate IE6 on a
Windows Vista PC?

Any pointers welcome ...

Regards,

Or order downgrade right media and roll back to XP.

Also ensure you have loaded up the SBS ripcurl fixes

Try "run as" and "Run as XP" as that will sometimes do the trick as well.
