Not impressed with IE7

[Curio]

It breaks QuickBooks and some other software - check before you install IE7.

YES it does. spent the last week removing IE7 and going back to 6. Its not compatible with a few of my companies web apps. what I dont like is how the little bastards sneak it in with auto update without asking.

To uninstall Internet Explorer 7 to return to Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP

1. Click "Start," and then click "Control Panel."
2. Click "Add or Remove Programs."
3. Check "Show Updates" at the top of the dialog box.
4. Scroll down the list and highlight the version of Internet Explorer 7 that you are running, and then click "Change/Remove." (If you are running Internet Explorer 7 Beta 2 Preview — March 20 or later, it is not necessary to check "Show Updates.")

You still have IE 6, you can keep IE 7 and use IE 6.

C:\WINDOWS\ie7 and you'll see the old IE 6 icon, create shortcut (send to desktop) and now use your old buddy until you get use to IE 7

When you uninstall IE7, the system reverts to IE6, no need to reinstall IE6.

To forestall further automatic upgrades to IE7 from the Microsoft Windows Automatic Update Service...

1. Open Internet Explorer and go to the following site
http://windowsupdate.microsoft.com
2. When the Update page opens, click on Custom
3. Uncheck the box for Windows Internet Explorer 7.0 for Windows XP
4. Check the box for Don't show this update again
5. Check the boxes for any other updates you wish to download and install them

Umm, IE 6 (exe) or standalone IE 6?
