How to uninstall IE8 Beta1 from Windows Server 2008?

I was trying to find a way to uninstall IE8, and in XP it showed in the Add/Remove Programs, but not in WS2008. It is actually installed as an update. So, you need to go to Control Panel –> Programs and Features –> Installed Updates, and select “Windows Internet Explorer 8” and hit Uninstall, and proceed with the wizard.

Hope this helps someone who tries to uninstall IE8 Beta 1 from WS2008 like how I did.
