Default How do I Revert Back to IE-7? XP-MCE user

If you would, please, what is the best way to solve the seemingly
slowness I am experiencing?

Thank You!

You would be much wiser to solve why it is slow rather than reverting back
to IE7.
Millions are using IE8 without problems.

IE-8, to me, is slow - long time to load. -7 was a breeze.

Appreciated and Thank You!

See "WHAT "above post"?

You are obviously not aware that the forum you are posting in is leaching
off the Microsoft News Servers.
That's not your fault. The owners of this forum should make that clear.
You would do better to use a news reader and subscribe to these groups
direct as most of the other users here do. We cannot see this "above post"

Thank you.

Yes, No Post Above. That said, PLEASE, someone advise why IE-8 runs
so slowly - opening seems to "take forever". Other Office 2007
products work perfectly. The cynical side might add: slowness
"seemed" to occur just about the time BING came out. Current opening
page is Google. MS, MVRs, pls forgive! Seriously, what tool might
get IE-7 to not chug, but run?

Appreciative and Thank You!

People *have* given explanations. Either you don't see them or you are
ignoring them.

I will try once more.

In another post, you asked:

What is a sound way to find out why IE8 is slow(er)?


I answered:

http://www.thewindowsclub.com/run-in...o-add-ons-mode

That is, you should run IE8 in No Add-Ons mode to determine if the
slowness goes away or not. If it does, then one of your addons is to
blame, and it is just a simple matter of process of elimination to
determine which one it is.

I also explained that:

"Some users have complained that Spybot Search & Destroy interferes with
IE8's built-in filtering."

You never stated if you run this program or not. If you do, check to see
if MS09-019/KB969897 is installed. If not, install it. If still no joy,
I would uninstall Spybot since it's not as good as it once was.

Then again, you can always uninstall IE8 and see how IE7 works. If IE7
is also slow, at least you know the issue isn't IE8.

Assuming first that you have Windows XP with Service Pack 3 and that
Internet Explorer 8 was installed *after* Service Pack 3 was installed - you
can follow these instructions:

How do I uninstall or remove Internet Explorer 8?

However - assuming still that you have Windows XP with Service Pack 3 but
that Internet Explorer 8 was installed *before* Service Pack 3 was
installed - you need to first uninstall Service Pack 3 from the control
panel (add or remove programs with show updates checked) and then follow the
above instructions.
