    Changed from McAfee to Norton.
    On completion of Live Updates I found IE7 installed.
    I would like to go back to IE6, however when I go to Add/Remove programme, I find that IE7 is not listed.
    How can I get rid of IE7 and reinstall IE6
    Thanks

    Very strange - even stranger that Norton installed IE7 without your knowledge :(

    You do know that IE7 is much more secure than IE6 and has the facility for tabbed browsing (like Firefox)? The GUI is similar and you will soon get used to the different positions of the toolbars and buttons.

    If you really want to return to IE 6 follow the steps outlined here ....

    Thanks Pete,
    Problem now resolved - I will probably upgrade at a later date.
