Can you save the image to your HDD?
Are you running WinXP SP2 or SP3?

Interesting. Do you get "access denied" errors when you attemp to, e.g.,
open Regedit or Task Manager?
What anti-virus application or security suite is installed and is your
subscription current? What anti-spyware applications (other than Defender)?
What third-party firewall (if any)? Were any of these applications running
in the background when you installed IE8?
Has a(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on the
computer (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought
it)?
