IE8 is a part of Windows 7 (a feature).
Try this:
- Close all programs.
- Click Start , and then click Control Panel.
- Under Programs, click Uninstall a program.
- In the tasks pane, click Turn Windows features on or off.
- In the list of windows features, check mark Internet Explorer 8.
- Hit Ok.

And the answer to why I couldn't login was solved when the new IE took me to the american servers not the european ones :)– JamesFeb 27, 2010 at 0:03
Are you sure you uninstalled it? Did you just hide it?
Go to Control Panel and search for "Set Program Access and Computer Defaults"
Under "Choose a configuration", click on whichever radio button is selected (mine is "Custom")
Under the "Choose a default web browser" section ensure there is a tick next to "Enable access to this program" next to Internet Explorer
