IE8 won't start after installation

I have twice tried to install IE 8, the first time about three months ago and
again today. The problem is that the program does not start after
installation. I have had no difficulties in uninstallation, and IE 7 works
afterwards. Is this a common problem and is there a solution?

Always state your full Windows version (e.g., WinXP SP3; Vista SP1; Vista
64-bit SP2; Win7; Win7 64-bit) when posting in a forum or newsgroup. Please
do so in your next reply.

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 attempted to install IE8?

Has a(another) Norton or McAfee application ever been installed on this
machine (e.g., a free-trial version that came preinstalled when you bought
it)?

No-charge support for Internet Explorer 8 installation, set-up and usage
(only) is available via telephone (based on your locale) through 31 December
2009 (time's a'wasting!). Customers must be running Windows XP or Windows
Vista in a non-domain environment.
