Reinstalling IE 6 on XP SP2

After that window is open, on the left-hand side of the pane you should see Add/Remove Windows components. Click this. It will likely ask you to wait a minute, then it will provide you a list of things you can add or remove. Check the box next to Internet Explorer. Click next. It will then proceed to install IE6 (provided you are running WinXP, that is).

If you are replacing IE7, be sure you have uninstalled IE7 before you reinstall IE6.

You may find an occasional 'glitch' here and there with IE6 after removing IE7 and reinstalling IE6. It appears that IE7 leaves bits and pieces of itself hanging around in the registry or something, and this may have an effect on a reinstall of IE6. The only problem I have seen since doing the above-mentioned remove/reinstall is that sometimes I have to right-click on a link and choose open in a new window to get the link to work.
