I assume you cannot just click the link above as you are not using a
newsreader.
You will get a far better experience of newsgroups if you use a proper
newsreader instead of that slow and quirky web interface you are
using.

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(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the
computer (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought
it)?

I'm running Norton AV, it is current, I don't have a third party firewall,
the anti spyware is part of Norton. None of those applications were running.
Per your instructions I did have the Windows firewall running during the
downloaed. When I tried the links for unistalling IE8 was after I installed
IE8 and I restored my anti virus and turned off the windows firewall and
turned on the firewall from Norton.

Please disrecard my last response. I was clicking on the link in your
response. I just noticed that there was a period at the end of the link. I
cut and pasted it without the period and it worked fine. Sorry.

[Yes, I saw your other post about the period and the link.]
