Mistake Options Advertisers


I did a repair install of my windows xp pro laptop before uninstalling IE 7.
What can I do to uninstall IE 7 now? Or will I have to do a clean install?
Any suggestions would be appreciated. This is my first request and I will
apologize to all who I offend!

First try uninstalling via Add/Remove Programs. (Make sure Show Updates box
is checked).

If IE7 isn't found there, try the following:

Run the commandline

%windir%\$NtUninstallie7bet2p$\spuninst\spuninst.exe

(replace %windir% with the path to your windows folder, most often
c:\windows). Make sure view hidden folders is enabled via Control Panel >
Folder Options.

or

Go to the key

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer

Right-click on internet explorer > New String Value > Name that value
InstalledByUser (the value of the new String should be your user Account
name) > Uninstall IE7 via Add/Remove Programs.

And please note:

"Beta testers of IE7 Public Preview are asked to post their comments to
microsoft.public.internetexplorer.general newsgroup."

i tried all the suggestions and decided they would not work for me. did
complete new install. sure wish i was smart enough to make a complete backup
onto a network drive and be able to recover same when i screw up during
testing of different software from internet? Is anyone have a solution as to
backup procedure? Thanks in advance!
