Graywolf_anf------ YOU ARE A GOD!!! after spending half a day trying everything, yours was the only thing that worked!!! KUDOS!! Anyone having this sh*t problem that MICROSHIT has passed onto us the CONSUMER! Read how Graywolf figured it out. To me its the only thing that worked. As for you Graywolf, you need a job at Micr$hit.......then again maybe not. Try Mac,cause the next O.S. i was considering buying was Mac.(if you work for Micro$hit read on) I did put the emphasis on BUYING! I was considering Win 7 ,but after this MALICIOUS! crap Microshit makes me swallow, well they can go F&C% ! THEMSELVES! Ok ive said enough. 3 Cheers to Graywolf!!

Unfortunately I had to uninstall windows completely and reinstall it. I
tried working with Microsoft engineer for three days and we could not get
IE8 cancelled.
Sorry I dont have better news for you.

Hi, I'm having troubles uninstalling IE 8 with beta. I have Windows XP, but for some reason it seems to stop copying files during the uninstall at a file called ieencode.dll.000. I can't understand it and have run it for 40 minutes and have waited on phone with microsoft for 25 then gave up.
Does anyone know what I'm talking about or has had the same problem?
Thanks, Sue

I uninstalled IE8, and then did the same for IE7 when it didn't start.... I made sure Firefox worked, but when I uninstalled IE8 it stopped working!
I have Windows XP, Firefox 2.0.0
What do I do?
Thanks!

Thanks for the reassurance that using the uninstall feature in Control Panel

As others have said, Windows Internet Explorer is not in Add/Remove Programs.

Please remove this incorrect page.
