I've tried to get rid of ie7 to replace it with ie6 and I can't. Any advice would be appreciated.?

You dont want to do that. IE6 is very vulnerable to viruses, where IE7 isnt as vulnerable.I've tried to get rid of ie7 to replace it with ie6 and I can't. Any advice would be appreciated.?
Open up the control panel, double click on ';add/remove programs.'; Now look for Internet Explorer 7 in the list. Click on it. Click on uninstall. It should automatically restore IE 6.





BEWARE: if your system is set to auto update, it might just try to automatically upgrade IE 6 again. In which case you will need to reset your update settings to tell it to ignore the update for IE7.





You do this by going back to your control panel and double clicking on ';System.'; Click on the ';Automatic Updates'; tab, then choosing the setting that says ';Download updates for me but let me choose when to install them.'; This way when there is an update to install, it will download it then tell you it is ready. You can then click the advanced option to see what it is, and choose to ignore it.





Alternately, you can just choose the option to turn off automatic updates, and do it manually every now and thenI've tried to get rid of ie7 to replace it with ie6 and I can't. Any advice would be appreciated.?
To revert back to IE-6, use your add / remove programs in control panel, just be sure that ';Show Updates'; is checked up at the top. That's all there is to it!
