You can't uninstall it but you can run this script to reinstall TCP/IP

Reinstalling the TCP/IP Protocol
Added 3/2/02

If you've worked on previous versions of Windows,
there are times when you need to completely reinstall the TCP/IP protocol stack.
This is typically due to corrupted files.

To do this with XP,
you need to run a small script:

netsh int ip reset [ log_file_name ]

the log_file_name needs to be specified.

e.g.
netsh int ip reset ip_reset.txt

Try going to Device Manager, VIEW Devices by connection. Within the window is TCP/IP Protocol. Right click and uninstall. Reboot. That's it.
