    I had IE8 on my new computer with windows 7, I upgraded to IE9 and I'm having lots of problems with visuals and videos. I would like to go back to IE 8. How do I do that?
    Will unistalling IE9 revert my computer to the original IE8?
    Thanks

    Helena,

    Uninstall IE9 and IE8 should be there.

    If not, then run through the process in this blog to get things back to the way they were.
