How to go back to IE 6 after instaling IE 7 ??

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance

Hello everyone;

I just installed IE 7 ok on XP/SP2.

However, one of the software I used (HP Scanjet 5590) depends on IE 6.1
being there for some reason. So now my HP Scanjet user interface does not
come up any more.

I called HP support and they told me I need to go back to IE 6.

But when I try to install IE 6 (I found a link on Microsoft website to
download it, I think IE SP1), it will not install, it tells me a newer
version exist.

Is there a way to un-install IE 7 and install IE 6 back? or somehow roll
back IE 7 to where the IE version that was there before? it seems installing
IE7 deleted IE 6? I thought it will just install IE 7 and leave IE 6 there?

thanks
Nasser
