| 798644 | 2009-08-06 01:15:00 | Hi All. I am using IE6. One of the genealogy sites I am using has started asking me to upgrade my browser to access the site. Do i now go to IE7 or is there an 8 version. Will I have problems if I do? Do I need to un-install IE7 first. Thanks. PJ |

| 798645 | 2009-08-06 01:21:00 | Just run Windows Update. It'll update you to IE8 | Blam (54) | ||
| 798646 | 2009-08-06 01:21:00 | Version 8 is the latest, just manually run Windows Updates and and it will download the correct components and install - follow on screen instructions. | wainuitech (129) | ||
| 798647 | 2009-08-06 01:40:00 | OK. Done & dusted, Thanks. Where can I see that8 IS installed. PJ | Poppa John (284) | ||
| 798648 | 2009-08-06 01:42:00 | Either in the add/remove programs with the 'Show Updates' option ticked, or in IE make sure that the menu bar is enabled, and click Help -> About. :thumbs: | wratterus (105) | ||

| 798652 | 2009-08-06 01:57:00 | I had a PC today where IE8 wasn't in the recommend updates for some reason, wonder if thats whats happened here. Download and install from here (www.microsoft.com), then reboot, and run windows update again, install all the recommended updates. |
