Internet Explorer 7

Download the Internet Explorer 8 and install it, this will automatically replace your IE7 with the new IE8.

You can easily download IE8 from:
http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=43
http://download.cnet.com/Internet-Explorer/3000-2356_4-10013275.html

You need to find the old installation files for IE7, uninstall IE8, install IE7 and then make sure that automatic updates are switched off, otherwise Windows will update it to IE8 again automatically.

Are you sure you want to use IE7? IE8 is more secure.

In fact, Firefox is much more secure and faster than either IE7 or IE8.

Hi,
Click on the start menu (orb), go to the Control Panel and select Programs & Features. From the list of installed software locate IE8 and uninstall it.

Restart your computer and download IE7 from here (its say's it's for XP, just ignore that it will work on Vista)

First of all it's about performance. Internet Explorer is much faster than IE7. Also IE8 has IE7 web compatibility. IE8 has many scripting, memory management, networking and rendering engine improvements.

Also for web developers, IE8 has improved DOM (document object model), has developer tools option too.

It might have been caused due to some problem in internet explorer 7(IE7)

Try to uninstall IE7. You can use the following method if it does not show up in add/remove programs.

THIS IS FOR IE7

Try this it helped me:

Go to Registry Editor:

Click START>RUN>type "REGEDIT"

Add following DWORD Values:

'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Main"

Add New DWORD Value called "RunOnceHasShown" and set the value to "1"
and
another DWORD Value called "RunOnceComplete" and set the value to "1"

Restart the Internet Explorer and it should be fine.

To avoid possible headaches from interference, I suggest you uninstall in Safe Mode:
Turn your PC on or Restart. As soon as you see the black and white screen, press and hold the F8 key. Continue holding until you see a black and white menu. Safe Mode is F3 or F5. 

Uninstall IE7
1. Click Start, and then click Control Panel. 2. Click Add or Remove Programs. 3. Scroll down to Windows Internet Explorer 7, click it, and then click Change/Remove.
If for some reason Windows Internet Explorer 7 does not appear in the Add or Remove Programs you should:

Hi Mary,

Mostly, new system with windows vista operating came with Internet explorer 7 which is the update of your internet explorer 6. You can still install IE6 but that could cause a problem with your system registry because you are reverting your internet explorer to the old version.

If you are playing video using your dvd rw you may need to use windows media player or you may need to use power dvd or any video/dvd player that came with your computer.

You dvd/rw is a device where you can write or copy your pictures, documents or any files on a blank dvd or cd.

keep me posted.
