I upgraded my IE to 8( wish I had never done that) and now it will not let me open fire fox. I tried un installing fire fox and re installing but no luck. I tried to uninstall the beta 8 version of IE, but it will not un install, Does anyone know how to get IE off my computer?...thanks

Did you uninstall IE 8 through the add/remove windows components?

Weird that firefox wont even open.
