Re: Update Error
Did you install IE8 about 4 days ago?
> Didnt work so I restored to a earier time.
What does that mean? Did you select & use a Restore Point? If so, what was
the date of the Restore Point?
What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your
subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?
What third-party firewall (if any)? Were any of these applications running
in the background when you installed IE8?
Has a Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on this machine
(e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought it)?
