I accidentally upgraded my computer to Internet Explorer 7. How can I revert back to the previous IE? Hello.

I notice on the HP, etc. websites IE 7 is not compatible with most of these. How can I revert back to the previous Internet Explorer?

Is there a glitch in the new IE 7 that makes your typing blurry? I never has this problem before and yes, lol, my glasses are brand new and I have cleaned my screen. I just wondered if it's a glitch anyone has noticed with IE 7. OR dare I jinx myself, is that a sign that my monitor is about to fail. It doesn't happen in every program I type in but most of them. LOLI found firefox and Manilla unfortunately just mess up your computer. If there is no answer to the blurry typing I might go back to the old version though. That was a good suggestion. Hi, each to their own maybe. My friends deleted Manilla because their firewall limited access and slowed everything down plus the tec told them to delete it and most of their problems would be solved. Which they were but I should have probably stuck with IE 6 for a bit longer. I will hope the fix the blurry problem soon. Thanks :)

How do I get rid of IE 7 and revert to IE 6? I know there are a few questions like this, and the best answer I found went like this. To uninstall Internet Explorer 7 to return to Internet Explorer 6 on Windows XP: Click "Start," and then click "Control Panel." Click "Add or Remove Programs." Check "Show Updates" at the top of the dialog box. Scroll down the list and highlight the version of Internet Explorer 7 that you are running, and then click "Change/Remove." Well, when I did that, everything seemed fine, until I accessed websites. I couldn't type anywhere...like I could access google.com, but I couldn't type anything in the search engine. I couldn't type on any websites. Search engines were accessable, but unusable. I hope I explained that well, it's kinda confusing. Then, when I tried to system restore it, system restore wouldn't run properly. So, in the end, I had to re-install IE 7. Is my computer some sort of special case that makes me doomed to use IE 7, or is there something else I can do?
