If you reformatted the hard drive, then you had to install the operating system.

If you did a system restore, or recovery restore, this does not format
the hard drive.

What ever you did, if IE is missing, you need to try it again, because IE
is integrated into the windows operating system and is always there, so something happened.

Are you sure its not under the start menu, or listed in your control panel.

Sometimes it does not get placed on your desktop, so you think its missing when its not.

Check around, and if you need more help just post back.
