Does a back browser vibrate the vertebrae?

ie8 is stable and should

but instead of uninstalling
it,

you might try testing your
system with another browser
like chrome or firefox.

it never hurts to have a
back browser installed
anyways.

also,

you might try testing
the performance of
the browser via safe
with networking.

I can't afford $60 for help. I'm hoping you guys can help. This is
what I posted yesterday....but I have a new problem.

After installing internet explorer 8.0 my computer went wonky. I
couldn't get online. Comcast assured me my modem was up and running
100%. They told me it was IE. So I uninstalled a bunch of programs I
wasn't using, I ran the disk cleanup, etc. I then uninstalled the
last update that was on my list. Nothing. SO I called comcast again
and some very nice woman walked me athrough a bunch of stuff and I
got back on the internet. Here's my NEW problem. Everything is gone
from the top of my homepage (comcast.net). Of course the google
toolbar is gone because I installed it. But in my address bar
everything is grey except a few words. It also doesn't drop down so
I can see the sites I went to all day. SO I try to install google
toolbar and it goes real quick until I get to 99%. Then it says 1
second remaining and that's it. I tried to install AVG and got the
same thing. Tried to install rapport so I could go on my stock
trading page..same thing happens for all of them. I went to tools,
internet options, security...made sure all the right things were
enabled. I've restarted, rebooted, etc etc. I want to install
firefox because I'm starting to think internet explorer is crap but
of course, you guessed it, that will only go to 99% and stop. I
can't install mcaffe, I only have windows firewall running. I've
tried downloading with that on and off.

I got 2 replies, however they want me to uninstall IE8 and
reinstall. The problem would be that I have no IE 6 0r 7 or anything
else. Since I am unable to download anything how will I get to the
internet with no browser and how will I install IE8 if all my
downloads stop at 99%??
