IE 8.0 will not display ANY page?

Don't know which forum to post this in. . Please feel free to move to another forum.
Using XP SP3 on a Dell xps 400.

I made the huge mistake of trying IE 8.0. Will not display ANY page.
I am using an old ATT Yahoo browser for this session.
Get this message on every page: "A malfunctioning or malicious add-on has caused Internet Explorer to close this webpage".
However, I am running IE 8 without add-on's.
When I first installed IE 8 it worked fine. But the next day it would not display web pages.
I uninstalled and downloaded again. Same result.

Any help is appreciated.

IE8 just doesn't work with some setups. Mine included. I use Maxthon for my browser (which uses the IE core files) and when I switched to IE8, Maxthon would work for a few minutes then close out with a crash error. I did like shadowpr suggested.....uninstalled IE8 and reverted back to IE7. All's fine now.

Well, there is a little icon on IE8 called compatibility mode next to the refresh button. whenever you cannot view a website just click on it and will working fine.
