BleepingComputer.com: Downloaded Ie 7 And Now I Am In Trouble

I use AT&T YAHOO DSL service. recent downloads included a Yahoo version of IE 7. After the skanky version downloaded, I lost the ability to access Internet Options via the Tool link in the browser. Tried going through Control Panel, but when I click on Internet options there, you can see a window open then immediately close. I dont know any other ways to access these options. Could someone help? Thanks

FYI...using Win XP Pro sp 2, AVG Virus Protect, Adaware malware detection

welcom to this forum


may I suggest to start with why not try a system restore to before IE7 was installed and see if IE6 still works?

Hi candiv,

You should only download Internet Explorer 7, or any other Windows Tools or Utilities from a Microsoft web site.

Uninstall IE7 via Add/Remove programs and reinstall it from this link: Windows Internet Explorer 7 for Windows XP SP2
A system restore should not be necessary.

on your start menue do you have a link to the windows downloads site which should go direct to the microsoft windows update site

thanks all for the ideas. I have tried system restore with no results, and I am afraid that if I remove Yahoo! IE 7 to convert back to standard IE 7 I wont have a browser to surf over to the microsoft site WITH...

sorry for the delay. been away from my 'puter for a couple of days
