      Nope if your default IE is IE6 then you installed 7 then uninstall it then install 8 and uninstall it again you'll go back to 6

        Yes, I dont know if you do a system restore but a simple uninstall and reinstall of 7 should work.

            What makes you think he uninstalled IE7 before installing IE 8?  He said nothing to indicate that.

              Exatly  ;)  But if he just runs the 7 installer it should be okay.
