How to uninstall IE 9 in windows 7

IE 9 is a bad web browser for several reasons which I am not going to explain here. But lets see how we can uninstall IE9.

Unlike other browsers IE 9 is not installed as an application but as an update to windows 7. Hence we cannot uninstall it as from program uninstall feature in windows7. Hence follow the following steps.

1.  Goto Control panel -> programs section -> Programs and features section
2. On the left panel  click view installed updates.
3. Check for internet explore 9 entry in the 'Microsoft windows' section. You can arrange the updates by installed dates column to help you out if you have installed recently.
4. Right click on the entry and click uninstall.
5. Do a system restart if required.

Thats it! You are done!
