I installed IE8 Beta to try it out. I like it, however, there are too many bugs and it is really slowing my system down right now. How do I go back to IE 7?

Thanks

You only have 384MB RAM. Your system will be slow with or without IE8...lol

I used GlarySoft Utilities - software remover.

And really, my computer isn't that slow. It works great - just that ie8 made it slower.
