What version are you running? Basically you should be able to remove IE completely using "Add Remove Programs" in Control Panel, then install a copy you'd rather use (assuming you are running WinXP). You will have to dig around to get older versions of IE.

Downgrading to an older version of IE is NOT the answer. Finding the real cause of the problem is....

"Im running internet explorer 7"

That's the chance you take when you install a new product that's not thoroughly tested. I didn't realize IE7 was out of BETA yet?

You can either roll back to IE6 by going to Control Panel > Add or Remove, or you could try a stand alone browser such as FireFox. I'm not sure if that will bypass the security patch or not.
