You can't.  It's an integral part of Windows XP.

Better you  restore your computer to a date when it was working with out the Explorer 7 and fix the problem . I hope you have windows XP. Otherwise try with another anti virus software. I can give a few links that offer free virus and spyware removers...! AVG , Avast are free antivirus software. Ad-aware, Ewido are free spyware removers. You can download free softwares at\nhttp://fixit.in/antivirus.html and http://fixit.in/spywareremover.html

That's the way to do it. You might also check under Explorer's options.

Get hold of CrapCleaner from FileHippo. Its free and it will tidy things its safe to tidy.\n\nYou can also delete restore points and change restore settings to save fewer restore points (or turn off system restore).\n\nIf you don't mind the risk, you can also delete all Windows update uninstallation folders - but do this the right way - they take up 800MB on my PC.

You can try http://www.ursoftware.com/. I have often found it being able to uninstall things that are not visible in the control panel -> add/remove programs.

You don't turn it off, you erase it. Use CCleaner:\n\nCCleaner is a freeware system optimization and privacy tool. It removes unused files from your system - allowing Windows to run faster and freeing up valuable hard disk space. It also cleans traces of your online activities such as your Internet history. But the best part is that it's fast (normally taking less than a second to run) and contains NO Spyware or Adware.

if you have xp, you already have internet explorer, it is a part of it, you can't get rid of it. it is just probably that you have mozilla as the default browser. find the shortcut to internet explorer on your start menu, open it, and reset the settings to default, it will ask you to make it the default browser, just say yes

The only sure way to get rid of it is to format the hard drive and reinstall windows. The people that allow your PC to be infected with this stuff get better and craftier every day with methods for circumventing anti-virus and spyware protection. Its a never-ending battle. You are better off just formatting the hard drive every couple of months and you will never have the problem again.

Internet explorer is integrated into windows, so you can not delete it
