no, IE7 isn't included in SP3.
You have to d/l it separately, it's offered by WU

I have IE6 now and really want to keep it. What I really wanted to know if
downloading/installing SP3 remove IE6 and install IE7 in it's place?
Or, will my IE6 continue to remain (on my computer)?
Thank you

This is what the Internet Storm Center says:
http://isc.incidents.org/diary.html?storyid=4387

***
If you are an IE 6 user, SP3 will simply updated your IE 6 installation. You
will continue to be able to upgrade to IE 7 as an option.

If you are an IE 7 user, it will update your IE 7 installation. HOWEVER, you
will NOT be able to go back to IE 6 after applying this service back.

If you are an IE 8 (beta) user, you will need to uninstall IE 8, apply the
service pack, and then reinstall IE 8.
