First with Vista when you uninstall 9, IE8 should be reinstalled. Lets think for a minute. If that were not the case, how would you use the internet to get 8, if you had How To Uninstall Internet Explorer 9 | Reinstall Internet Explorer 9no browser.
Be sure to follow the directions for Vista.
So if that information is correct, the browser that you are using may be 8.
If you find that the method does not remove 9, just remove the update that was used to give you the browser and see if that works.
