Ok so i am running windows 7 64 bit, this came with IE8 preinstalled but the other day i thought i would try IE9 beta. The beta isn't working on my system and won't even load half the time. I don't really have the time or paitance to fix these issues i just want IE8 back.

so i went to the IE8 site

http://www.microsoft.com/windows/internet-explorer/worldwide-sites.aspx

but their is no option for windows 7, so i downloaded vista 64 bit, but this won't install as i am running wrong operating system.

Where can i get IE8 from?

Thanks

You don't install Internet Explorer 8 on Windows 7. You just have to uninstall Internet Explorer 9 Beta and everything comes back...
