keep it cause its an integral part of windows ... but you can deleate it from your desktop and put Firefox in its place .

just go to start /programs when you need to use intardnet explorer .

Whats cool is after using fire fox the most tracking cookies i get is about 5 after a week of serfing .. with IE id get 50-200 perday.  (As tested with ad aware se )

Have to say after using firefox for a while i doubt anybody would feel the need to go back to IE.

Not sure where that ties into this thread, but a 300 sure wouldn't hurt... infact I'd say a good 350 to be safe.

Well for one, M$ Windows update does not play well with Firefox...go figure..still a number of sites that don't work correctly with Firefox.
