Why can't I upgrade to IE8 with my Windows 7 64bit system?

My friends Windows 7 64bit system upgraded to IE8; why can't I do the same? Is it because she has an HP dm1 net book, I have Sony Vaio VGN-NW 100?|||Hello,





Internet Explorer 8 comes standard with Windows 7 64bit. Quite possibly, your friend has Internet Explorer 9 Release Candidate installed. Consider giving it a try; you can download it here http://windows.microsoft.com/ie9. And you can learn how it differs from Internet Explorer 8 here http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/inter鈥?/a>





Let us know if this helps.





Cheers,


Jason

If your Menu Bar is showing click on Help and see what version you have. Hope this helps. Good Luck.|||windows 7 comes pre installed with ie8 so you dont need to install it
