Said NO to IE8

Remember my previous post about Internet Browser benchmark test results, Microsoft IE really really suck.

And the good news is you can remove your IE8 on Microsoft Windows 7 build 7048 now.

Here are some instructions courtesy of Bryant

1. Enter the Control Panel and look at “All Control Panel Options”
2. Click “Programs and Features”
3. In the left sidebar, click “Turn Windows Features On or Off” (you will be thrown a UAC prompt if you elevated UAC)
4. Wait for the list to load.
5. Look for Internet Explorer 8 in the list and uncheck it.
6. Click OK. You will see a prompt notifying you of a reboot.
7. The machine will reboot once, configure things, and reboot again.
