How can I reinstall IE8?
The IE8 download site recognizes that I already have IE8.

Hi Bob,

One would ask why you want to re-install IE8.

What is broken so much that you cannot fix it?

Apart from that you can only re-install IE8 on XP/SP2-3 machines by first
uninstalling it an reverting back to your previous IE version and then
downloading and installing the latest version from the IE site.

To repair IE 8 go Start>Control Panel>Internet Options - Advanced tab, click
the "Reset" button.

Regards.

Always state your full Windows version (e.g., WinXP SP3; WinXP 64-bit SP2;
Vista SP1; Vista 64-bit SP2; Win7; Win7 64-bit) as well as your IE version
when posting in an IE-specific forum or newsgroup. Please do so in your next
reply.
