Hi Peter
Depending on how long it has been since you installed the SP2 patch, you may
be able to do a restore to a date prior to when you installed the SP2. That
will return the machine to the state it was at that time.
If there are no restore points back to that time, then you can just
uninstall the SP2 from your IE. Try the information below and see if that
