Uninstalling Internet Explorer 7 from Windows XP automatically returns
you to IE 6. No need to reinstall anything.
Before installing IE 7 you need to have carefully followed the
procedures described here:
http://www.ie-vista.com/known_issues.html#pre-install.
If you did not follow these instructions you may have a damaged or
incomplete installation. Uninstall IE 7 (which automatically returns you
to your previous version of Internet Explorer) by following these
directions:

....and...
http://www.ie-vista.com/kbase2.html
then follow the procedures described above and re-install IE 7. It's
better to download the IE 7 installer directly from Microsoft and
install from your hard disk (rather than going through Windows Update).
Note: If you installed Service Pack 3 after you installed IE 7, you will
have to remove SP 3 before you can remove IE 7.
