IE8 will remove your resore points. All the points you may have had will be
gone. Printer drivers are removed also.

If you use the "Repair Existing Installation" from the original install disk it will
do that. It will also result in some other odd behavior from some programs. Have
you, perchance, tried that sledgehammer approach to troubleshooting your problem?

Otherwise I would suspect a virus or malware.
