I use IE8 and haven't noticed anything buggy about the upgrade. BTW, when you do download it, the new version will just overwrite over the old version. No need to uninstall.
good luck!
Hi,
I have IE, as well as Firefox and Safari. My dad uses IE, and I have had this computer for like a year. I have not updated or installed anything for IE. Now I found out there is an IE8, do I need this? Is it buggy or does it have problems? Do I delete the existing IE and then down load 8?
Thanks in advanced,
Audrey
