[gui-talk] Uninstalling IE8:

[Cindy Handel]

Well, I just found IE 8 in Add/Remove programs and uninstalled it.  It did 
roll back to IE 7, automatically.  But, while uninstalling, something must 
have been removed, which shouldn't have, because I kept getting a page 
asking me to customize my settings.  It wanted me to select what I wanted to 
use as the default to search.  But, there were no choices.  So, I downloaded 
and installed IE 7, again, from Microsoft.  Now it works well.

Cindy,

thanks. I'm still using IE 7, and I haven't yet switched to IE8. Your
experience with it sounds pretty disappointing. On the other hand, at least
you were able to remove it from your system. Maybe you could help Jim
uninstall his?

Best,
Joel

Hi Joel,

I recently uninstalled IE 8.  I can't remember how long I had it on my
computer, but I was having problems.  I'd try to go online, to my home page,
by clicking on Internet Explorer on the desktop,  Sometimes it wouldn't do
anything, and others, it would take ten or fifteen seconds before it opened
Windows Internet Explorer.

I also had trouble with some links not working on webpages.  These are links
which had worked, in the past, and not all on the same site.  I really like
IE 7 much better.

Al,

sorry if I'm coming in late on this, but how come you're trying to uninstall
IE 8? I am not even sure if it's in actual release yet, is it? If so, is it
what a reasonable guy like me (haha!) should do, replace IE 7 with it and be
up to date? Or is it sort of a Beta version and you're not happy with
something about it, so you're trying to get it off your system?

as I said, sorry. I just never have understood what's the deal with this
version and whether it's sort of the mandatory new thing and I'm falling
behind.

And I do hope you figure out a way to clean it up or get it off your system,
if that's what's necessary right now.

I can find the icon but 8 won't uninstall.  In fact the process won't even
begin after clicking for it.  Does anyone know of a good uninstallation
program?  I can't find the one I had and can't remember its name.  thanks
