Hi mad4golf , when you install IE7 it overwrites IE6 and shows in add/remove programmes as IE7.
If you choose to uninstall IE7 ( through add/remove programmes ) it should automatically revert back to IE6.
Which version is showing in your add/remove ? , or , open IE and click on help > about internet explorer , to find which one you are currently running.

To the best of my knowledge it's not possible to run IE6 and IE7 on the same PC ( without a lot of knowledge and a lot of serious tweaking ) as , like i said when you install IE7 it overwrites the files for IE6.

If you open IE and click on help > about internet explorer , which one you are currently running.
