i love Internet Explorer 8 because it is so much stable that the previous versions of IE. IE7 sometimes freezes and causes blue screens on my PC.

Internet Explorer 8 seems to be the best browser for me. I can open more than 20 windows simultaneously without crashing. IE7 and IE6 is unstable that if you open more than windows at a time it just freezes or causes the blue screen.

Reinstall both and try removing SP3 first then IE8.

All of the options to remove SP3 require using the RUN feature and typing in a command. The run feature does not work. I’m going to the computer store. Sorry for the inconvenience

Ok I followed the link you gave me and I realize now that I need to uninstall Service Pack 3 first. That is in Add/Remove so I initiated the remove feature for SVC Pask 3 but in the end after several minutes of looking and checking. a warning appears saying:”The system cannot find the file specified” The title of the dialogue box is Service Pack 3. Well it shows it to be there in the Add/Remove window. I loaded it (after the IE8)hoping it would solve my problem (No)So any ideas? How can I remove Svc pack 3 if Uninstall can’t find it? Happy Labor Day by the way!

Actually I just went back to look and Add/remove screen was looking back at me. Apparently just takes forever to load. I went to the IE8 tab but it does not display a button to remove it. It only gives me a link to Microsoft support page. Hmmm.

Well, I did get it to start in safe mode but alas and alack I get the same response on anything I click. It pauses for a few seconds and returns to the display without opening the program. From the start menu I can get ALL PRograms but again when I go to Accessories then System Restore (or any .exe nothing happens. There were other option in the safe start up window. Any that could help?
