OK, it won't let me upload a winzip file either. There are no log files to view in the folder just two .dmp files. I thought I might try a screenshot so I tried to open them with Notepad ++ but could not. Now what?

I clicked on the Share Folder icon at Mediafire and it gave me a link to copy which is the one I posted. I just tried the link in my post above and it took me right to the file. What am I missing?

That just takes me to the login page, the link should be a series of letter/numbers as the URL after mediafire

Could you go Start > Run
Type in Cmd.exe
Press OK
A black box will open
Copy and then paste the following command into the box

%windir%\ie8\spuninst\spuninst.exe

Let me know the result please

Just so I'm clear on this. First I run the uninstaller wizard for IE8, then I run the Complete Internet Repair Program, then download and install IE8 again. Is that correct? If so how do I log onto the internet to DL IE8?

When IE8 is uninstalled you will revert to IE7

That is the correct sequence

That was actually a personalized version of the "digging a hole Boss" line in Paul Newmans' Cool Hand Luke movie.

Well, I had to uncross my fingers, hang my head and come back to you yet again with empty hands. I got the short flash of a blue screen then Windows rebooted and I got that "recovered from a serious error" message again. Just for grins I pulled up Add/Remove Programs and IE8 was still there. Got any C4? LOL!
