    [FONT= "Book Antiqua"]I recently got the IE version 8 released by Microsoft.
    However when I try to install it, it does not install and gives an error message. I quote it as:-
    Failed to install, Not supported.
    PLZ Help!!
    :eek:    [/FONT]

    You mean you downloaded the beta? Maybe you should just wait till the final version is released...

    Also Thanxx Arie for telling me that it's beta version. Although I know it. Does that mean it wo'nt run on my Vista?

    IE8 should be released in 1H2008 (1st half of 2008) according to Microsoft. No more precise date has been given.
