Try google its your friend 
What about trying windows restore to a previous setting. Choose the last date before the update and reinstall that. Should undo what ever the update had done and set your computer to run as it was.
Start .. search ... type in system restore.
Your computer should bring up where you system restore is. Right click on it. Click on 'restore my computer to an earlier setting'. You should get a calendar with the date on. Chose the date before the upgrade then click next. It should undo the upgrade.

What version of IE are you running ?
i have found in the past it got stuck, sound silly i know.
use this:
it will delete all record of your browsing history, including hidden ones. You will lose any cookies you have so if you have passwords and stuff you need write them down just incase. I never let my pc remember passswords so dont know if it will get rid of yours but suspect it will.
once reset you should be ok, but read instructions first as its a very efficient cleaner.

Ccleaner is good, It can be set up to not forget passwords and keep any cookies for sign ins etc, it is worth its weight in gold and the registry fixer is a natty little addition aswell.

Thanks guys and gals for all the information.
IE 7 still doesn't seem to be working corrrectly . The tools menu still doesn't appear to work clearing anything eg history ,temp internet files , cookies etc .
Managed to get round it by clearing it through the
Start Menu , my computer route .
Annoying , but a least prying little eyes won't come across any of the sites we visit .
Stiil a little concerned what else this update may have caused . Anyone else had problems ?
