bvw Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 I don't advise removing IE Monkey. Use it when you have to, updating anti virus/windows updates etc........ and use another browser for everything else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CurlyWhirly Posted May 8, 2005 Report Share Posted May 8, 2005 I don't think that you could remove IE anyway as it is part of the operating system. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
djohn Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 Agree with bvw on this Monkey. Is there a particular reason for wanting to bin it? :unsure:Unless it is causing a problem that can't be fixed, then best to leave, just use a browser of your choice.

scuzzman Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 You can find out here: http://www.ntcompatible.com/thread23510-1.htmlKeep in mind, this will keep you from performing Windows Update without the use of a third party application called Daisy, where you can get it I have no idea.

Scarecrow Man Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 Microsoft says, but they do not give instructions on how to remove it as scuzzmans link does. But I'll go with the majority here and say dont remove it. It's a part of the OS. You cannot just "un-install" it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ɹəuəllıʍ ʇɐb Posted May 9, 2005 Report Share Posted May 9, 2005 IE is part of Windows XP and up. According to Scarecrow Man's Microsoft link, IE can be uninstalled on previous Windows versions.But I also would opt against uninstalling IE.
