I used to be happy with IE. Then I went to Mozilla. You don't realize how much IE blows, until you use Mozilla for awhile.

In IE I can have the highest security, yet pr0n sites still have their way with my poor browser. On moderate security settings I had a website force a link onto my desktop and start menu.  (http://tongue.gif)

In Mozilla I can neuteur pr0n sites good, while still having alot more functionality then IE in its "Ultra secure" mode. I have not tried the most recent version of IE, and I never will.

Mozilla fucking pwns IE!  (http://smile.gif)

I'm pretty sure he/she doesnt want to use IE (or is using IE) if he is trying to delete it.

but still in Linux he/she wouldnt have this problem

tabbed browsing, when i first started with linux, i was like "ill be curropted on windows not with the true os", then i found mplayer and mozilla tabbed browsing, and said "holy shit" becuase unlike IE, many many many tabs of content and such can be open at once and mplayer is a shit load faster then any windows divx player

internet explorer is integral to windows xps so called operation. i dont think you CAN remove it from the system. unless of course you wipe the "c" drive. i would highly suggest looking into a better operating system. if that is too much, just use mozilla. mozilla has a very nice mail client and is a very robust browser. i cant stress how much better it would be to just get rid of windows. completely.
