Uninstalling IE 7

[Guest 5tulips]

I have been having some kind of a connection error because I cannot connect

to the server for my web site. I can, however, go to the internet, get mail

and everything else, except for this one problem.

 

I have been reading of many people having problems like that because of IE

7. So I'm going to uninstall IE 7 to see if that corrects the problem.

 

The question is, there are 8 security updates for IE 7 also installed. Do I

need to uninstall them, also? Two of them were installed the same day I

installed IE 7.

=> Does this behavior persist if you start IE7 in No Add-ons mode? To start

IE7 in No Add-ons mode:

 

1. Right-click on the blue IE desktop icon and select Start without Add-ons;

or

 

2. Start > (All) Programs > Accessories > System Tools > Internet Explorer

(No add-ons).

No, and you may ignore any "such and such may not work if you..." warnings

if you decide to uninstall IE7.
