return to IE 8

Windows 7, 64 bit. This computer really ticked me off by installing IE 9. How do I get back to IE 8?

My searches always get back to a Microsoft download page and the english version for IE8 does not have Windows 7 listed.

BTW: from this page:

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/how-do-i-install-or-uninstall-internet-explorer-9

I followed the instructions to uninstall IE-9. There are 105 items listed and IE-9 is not one of them.

No, it wasn't there either. I did find an option Programs and Features -> Turn windows features on or off. In there is an option to enable Internet Explorer 8, but nothing to uninstall. After making the selection, a reboot was required.

Thanks for taking the time to post.
