IE 8 help

[captcalhoun]

okay, i 'upgraded' to IE8 yesterday. it WAS running okay, but for some reason this morning it's been refusing to load pages on ebay and on comicbookresources.com and jumping to a Dell/Google page saying it can't load the ads. can someone tell me how to uninstall IE8 cus it's not on the add/remove programmes list.


and, please, don't give me any of that 'use firefox ' bullshit.

use firefox

Are you sure you meant to post that in this forum?

 

[Orac Zen]

Yeah, I'll send this to the Sci Tech forum. This isn't really the place for it.

Once IE8 is installed you cannot uninstall it. You will be able to in Win7 however.

What OS are you running? IN Vista I think you have to select view installed updates for it to show up in Add/Remove Programs. Alternatively you can uninstall it by running "c:\windows\ie8\spuninst\spuninst.exe"

I wonder what caused your problems though, you could try installing IE8 again afterwards and maybe it'll keep working.
