Short of reformating hard drive completly any suggestions from the Microsoft
Developers working on the IE7 Beta version?

I have removed IE7 using Add/Remove
I have used System Restore to a point before it was downloaded.
I ran sfc and disk check
I've run Adaware Personal, Spybot, NIS 2006 and Registry Mechanic.
I was going to remove and re-install SP2, but somenody else has reported
that this will not fix the problem either.
 
First, try downloading & running ie6setup.exe. If the setup won't allow
you to install Internet Explorer you will need to create a key in the
registry before setup allows the installation.

Follow these steps to allow the ie6setup.exe to run correctly.

* Open Regedit, navigate to:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Active Setup\Installed
Components\{44BBA840-CC51-11CF-AAFA-00AA00B6015C}

* Right-click in the open area of

'{89820200-ECBD-11cf-8B85-00AA005B4383}', select 'New', click 'DWORD

Value', type IsInstalled

* Double-click IsInstalled, Value should be 0

Note: If the 'IsInstalled' key is already in registry , change value to 0

* Exit Regedit

* click to download & install IE6:

I don't think he was suggesting that. I wrongly displayed the link before
the 'Cumulative Update for Internet Explorer for Windows XP Service Pack 2',
though it does link to the correct site with some common sense reading. This
is the correct link, my bad.
