Is it OK to Delete Internet Explorer?
Hello!
Since I use Firefox as my internet browser, can I delete Internet Explorer from my computer. Do I need IE for any internet functions??
Thanks for any advice.

No, you don't need it. As long as you have a browser than you're ok. As you know you can always download it from Microsoft if you need it again. Some versions of Windows were even sold without it
You can deactivate it from the Add & Remove programs window under Windows Services. Then Reboot, and you'll never have to worry about it again.
Windows Features - Turn On or Off
If you really want t0o make sure that IE is fine to get rid of...install IE-Tab in firefox...
IE is no longer needed
IE can only be deactivated, as mentioned previously. But deactivation is the same as uninstalled, you will not even know that it is there.
