    Default I'm going kinda insane here.

    Was IE 8 ever compatible with Windows 7? For the life of me, I cannot find an IE 8 download for Windows 7.

    I can find IE 9 beta, but I don't ****ing want it. I want IE 8, or some other non-beta version.

    I don't want the beta, because its telling me it requires updates, and, for some stupid reason, I can't update right now.

    I'm ready to kill something small with a hammer.

    You should already have it. IE8 comes with Windows 7.

    EDIT: I mean, Vice City Versa.

    Edit: Wait, OK, I have it, but none of the exe files in there work. Lmfao I hate computers.

    Why on earth would you ever want to use IE8?

    (Granted, better than IE6, though...)

    I'm having a buttload of issues installing Maple Story, and I'm really thinking this is the reason.

    And thank you Murxidon, I'll brb and let ya know if that worked.

    Edit: The box WAS indeed unchecked, my computer is thinking about maybe doing something now that I've clicked it.

    Edit2: Well, it seems that I do indeed have IE 8, and it IS indeed running, but for some reason it won't even connect to Google. Lmfao. God I hate computers so much. I'm just gonna reinstall Windows 7 fresh tomorrow. **** this.

    Edit3: HAH. resetting IE 8 under tools>internet options>advanced>reset worked for me. THank you Murxidon, I'm gonna rep you forever.

    Edit: I guess I have to spread some around. JALSKFDHJGEKHGFLA:W

    AND IT FIXED MAPLE STORY OMFG IM GONNA CRY IM SO HAPPY. I'm seriously the only person on the internet to figure this error out lmfao.

    If you have legal copy of win7, don't they include IE8 together?

    If you can't find it, it's probably been disabled. Go to Control Panel > Uninstall a Program > Turn Windows Features on or off and check Internet Explorer 8.
