uninstall ie7

I want ie6 or lates ie6 back (ie7 isn't professional looking enough).
I uninstall ie7 by change/remove components (uncheck option in popup for
ie) and it goes. When I try to install ie6 again I get the message a newer
version is installed and can't install ?

How can I fully remove ie7 ?

Hi

When you uninstall IE7, Windows should automatically revert to IE6 - it does
hear. You need to uninstall IE7 via Add/Remove Programs.

You did not remove IE7. You removed ACCESS to IE7. (Read the dialog box.)
Which version of IE7 are you trying to remove?

and the ie icon also dissappeared when i removed it.

Hi

You uninstalled via Add/Remove Programs and **not** Components?

Hi

To delete IE7 you will have to use Add/Remove Programs. Then Windows will
revert to IE6. Going through Components only removes the access to the
desktop icon for IE.
