Instead of uninstalling it, I have decided to use System Restore utility that comes with windows XP. After that, IE7 would open up for 1 second and close down of its own. I re-installed IE8, though it might cure the problem...No way.
I had to use restore from Ghost image.
Spec's of my PC at work are:
Dell Optiplex 280GX, Win XP SP3.
You have been warned.

Strange - I'm also running XP SP3 and IE8 has had no effect at all on BD for me. Given that BD is probably my most-used program, after IE and Outlook Express, it would be very important for me if it had affected it.
