I use genuine windows 7.

however,sometime back,I had deleted the internet explorer 7.

Now I am not able to install,none of the IE versions. during the installation process,the above message appears.

what is the solution if any?a google search has not helped much.

^^ if the OP had deleted IE then how else would he surfed the interweb? :lol:

@OP how did you "delete" internet explorer ? from add remove windows components? re-enable it and that should install the browser. use windows update to download the latest browser supported for your operating system.
