How do I tell which version of IE I have?

[Jan1957]

Can someone tell me how do I found out what version of IE I have on my laptop? With the changes on here my normal route through AOL does not seem to load AB properly now so I have tried IE which works but I'm still not getting the lines between the questions. I believe when I got IE it was version 7 and know it has been updated but have seen a lot of complaints about 8. As a total beginner is it worth me updating to 8 or will it cause me problems I don't need? Or should I try something else completely? Thanks for any help.
