    Windows XP comes with internet explorer 6. It is surely possible to upgrade the IE version but I am not sure if its possible to downgrade it as in this case.

    In any case, if you try to install it, you might get a number of warning indicating that you present version is newer than the one you will be installing.

    You have to bypass these warnings and install IE 5.5 over it.

    If you ask me, IE6 is better than IE 5.5, though the latter is a little faster.
