Started to have a problem with IE 8 and windows Live Mail on my beta machine. For what ever reason, i can no longer open Windows Live Mail without gettign a ton of error messages. IE 8 wont allow me to use any hyperlinks. i tried to go to the internet options tab to do a reset and it wont allow the system to open it. i've also noticed a problem with "in private" sessions causing errors when you close it. i have tried to do a system restore back before the last updates were done abouta week agoand the system wont allow me to restore.any sugesstions would be great.

Greetings,IE8 Beta builds were having some issues. You could try as a workaround once in IE8: click Tools Menu - Internet Options - Advanced - Reset Internet Options. It's a good idea too to delete Temporary Internet Files.Hopes this helps.Regards.W7 Beta running on an AMD Semprom 3200+ (1800Mhz) with 2 Gbs of RAM and a built-in Nvidia 6100 VGA, and mate, it runs like a charm! And now on my VAIO FE31M Laptop.

i had the same issue with IE and the sfc/scannow cmd didnt work. I decided to back up my files and did a clean install. After the clean install... the IE issues were resolved. Reinstalled Windows Mail and that worked fine as well.

IE 8.0 that come with win 7 have tons of bugs that will not able to fix by update.IE 8 final build will come with win 7 RC as mention in win 7 team blogs.
