Internet explorer 7 I have just upgraded to this but don't like the new look how can I go back to the older version.

Get over it .........why would you want to revert to a less secure browser ? Try FireFox instead
geek_evoeaterAugust 27, 2008, 8:11 am#3
It can be uninstalled But given the way IE6 horribly renders webpages and all the hack jobs that developers make to get it looking right I would make the effort to get used to it. Esp since I heard rumours of Microsoft dropping support for it

Still.. flapping your gums? Just what does less secure really mean? Why should we worry about it? As for looking poor, why don't you really look at the other web-browsers? They look dreadful.

Less secure really means less secure IE6 can for example open you to 'driveby downloads' a lot more easily than v7

Just.. why do you attack anyone using IE? Some sort of penis envy? Get over it and try contributing!

Prime example why not to use any I.E 6 or 7 imo Internet Explorer 7 Popup Address Bar Spoofing Test A vulnerability in Internet Explorer, which can be exploited to spoof the address bar of a popup-window. The vulnerability has been confirmed on a fully patched system with Internet Explorer 7.0 running on Microsoft Windows XP SP2. Other versions may also be affected. Unpatched for 672 days.

Geez moore4 http://www.wikihow.com/Downgrade-to-Internet-Explorer-6 ..there are a TON of ways to go about it without starting a beatdown war amoungst the brothers!! commonsense to use a search engine here is the biggest issue.
