Author Topic: How do you delete IE? Michael Schaffer "Where is the Boardwalk Hotel?" Posts: 4143 From: Boston, MA Registered: Apr 2002 posted 02-02-2004 02:47 AM                        I tried that tip, but found that the messenger folder in program files was still there after the "uninstallation". I deleted the folder and rebooted. The first time, there was an error message about some dll file not found, I clicked OK and rebooted again. Now it does not give me the error message anymore. It seems that I have gotten rid of the evil messenger.  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.

You DO NOT want to remove Microsoft Internet Explorer from your Microsoft Windows system. In fact, you want to do the exact opposite. Keep the browser up-to-date even if you do not use it. This will keep the system up-to-date with security patches (additional patches that aren't released separately) and other patches that will improve OS stability. I don't smoke and I don't let anyone smoke in my car, but I don't throw out the ash tray.  |  IP: Logged Paul G.

However, they can just get on the Microsoft website and download it and reinstall it at anytime they so desire.  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 02-04-2004 04:18 PM                  Josh: Thanks for that link.
