To uninstall IE 6 from windows 2000 Click Start, and then click Run.
In the Open box, type the following command, where C is the drive where Windows is installed:
"C:\program files\internet explorer\ie uninstall\w2kexcp" /u /q
If that does not work then you can do an In-Place Upgrade of Windows 2000
Insert the Windows 2000 Setup CD into the CD-ROM drive, start the computer, and then press a key to start from the CD-ROM.
On the Windows 2000 Setup screen, press ENTER Click Accept to accept the License Agreement.
Setup should now detect your installation. NOTE: If the Setup program does not detect a previous installation but just continues to the partitioning screen, there is a problem. An in-place upgrade may not be possible.
When you are prompted to repair the existing Windows 2000 installation, press R. Windows 2000 Setup performs an in-place upgrade of the existing installation. Note that you might lose some of your customized settings for the system files.
An In-Place Upgrade does not change the installed components and programs, any passwords, third-party registry entries but it should roll back you IE to the base version
