If you go to
Help, (at top)
it should say
which version.

Usually, option to
install IE8 arrives
when Microsoft
does an update.

Hi Zygy,

To find Which version of IE you're using:

In IE, Alt+H or ALT+H/A

Most Windows software reports the version number in response to the
"About" option on the "Help" menu. If you have IE 7 you MIGHT need to
look in the 'Tools" menu to find a "Help" sub-menu.

Your Windows version (98, ME, 2000, XP, Vista etc) may be relevant in
determining which procedure would result in updating to IE version 8. In
Windows XP you would select the "Help and Support" option in the second
column of the task bar's "start" menu. Look for the Windows Update link
under "Pick a Task". If IE 8 has been previously hidden you might have
to click a link to show hidden updates.

Hi, Thank you for the reply, but what happens when I install Windows 7 and
my IE8 is not working properly (as it has happened to others). where do I
get the download then? So, I want to be prepared and have a saved download
now. Where do I get it?

You don't need one. Windows 7 comes with IE8 built in....
