    There is noticable difference in speed of Chrome and IE

    IMO no big difference between the others.

    Just make IE the default, you do not have to uninstall the others.

    Try it out see if you like it.

    Mitch656,
    IE8 is safe to use providing YOU surf safely, & apply the relevant security updates / fixes as they become available.
    Refer to the link for a performance comparison between the browsers.
    Hope that helps.
