1.	Solve : Get rid of IE8 forever??
Answer» Is it posible to Get rid of IE8 forever? I did remove it and went back to IE6, the original of this install. I am running XP sp3 and when I un install IR8 I can go back and bring up IE6. So far, so good. So in hte morning I get a message fro automatic updates that I did to do an update. OK, this machine is very legit and stable. So I do it, and POW! It gives me IE8 again! AHHH. I can not use IE8 I am not willing to alter my BRAIN to learn yeat another browser behavior. I want IE8 forever! So how can I get relevant updates and not get IE8. Please have pity on me. I can not tolerate IE8. I can get a not from my doctor the it ... drives me crazy! Pleae help! Yes, I do have firefox. But I need IE6 for a few tasks. Don't need all the histrionics. Go into Windows Update and hide the update.Right clik on the IE8 update next time the window comes up and select remove from list...it'll stop buggin you... BTW you should have Updates set to notify but ask before INSTALLING...the safest bet to keep Win from doing what it wants to do. I have it set this way and i usually check Forums for update issues for about 2 weeks before i DLoad and install them. Take CONTROL of your machine... A perfect example of this was last Fall when an automatic update from MS shut down internet connectivity on untold numbers of machines... They don't always get it right.Thank you Patio. Works good. No problem....
