Problem with Internet Explorer 7

[freddy24]

I think my IE7 has been corrupted. I have tried to remove it using the ADD/REMOVE facility in the COnTROL PANEL but although this deletes the entry it does not remove the software. My ultimate aim is to remove the existing IE7 and then download a new version of IE7 hoping that the problem will have been removed. I am running Windows XP.
