I agree. No need to uninstall IE8 which will just put the machine back
to an older version...simply don't use it.


I browse
http://www.cnn.com/ in MSIE 8 under XP. It shows a
corrupted web page.

I browse the same webpage in Google Chrome. It displays correctly.

Is there some way of fixing, or restoring, MSIE 8 so it displays pages
correctly?



It's not that IE-8 is broken per-se simply that it's obsolete.

Due to the fact that it's not secure and due to the fact that it does
not render web pages correctly simply do not use it.

There are still browsers that will get continued XP support
