Hi all, I know this may sound like a stupid question, but I amt thinking of installing IE 8 because frankly its a huge improvement over IE 7 especailly in terms of security... anyways, I was just wandering, because it is a beta, do I need to uninstall my existing IE 7 which came installed with my OS (there are to versions 32 and 64bit)?? or can I just go right ahead and download and install IE 8 and not have to worry about anything?? P.s. I will be getting IE 8 vista 64bit edition. Thanks for the help all.
ok cool thanks, so all i need to do is download IE 8 (64bit edition) and then I can install it and I should be able to use it from then on? Can I ask if you know anything about IE 8? I mean, i've been doing some research and it seems pretty good and a definite improvement over IE 7, but what do u think? do you reccomend getting it, or should I wait for the RC or final public release?
I haven't used it yet, because I don't have a computer with Windows on it here. But because IE is a critical part of Windows, I'd suggest to not install a beta version on a critical computer, but to install it inside a virtual machine instead.
ok i guess i'll wait for the public final release, i may try it out on a virtual machine like you said though - thanks for the help dude!
