Felt like checking out IE8 on XP, but before I install it has anyone else done so? I\'d like to know if it\'d be possible to uninstall it or revert back to IE6 afterwards.

I know its probably unlikely, but I was able to put IE7 on Win2k and remove it later on, through some messy trickery.

Why would you want to check out IE8 in the first place?

By "check out" you mean uninstall? If so - wasn't IE8 still beta?

Make games, not war.
