If you have already downloaded mozilla firefox, can you uninstall the IE7?

Question

My daughter downloaded the mozilla firefox without uninstalling IE7 first. Can she uninstall IE7 without causing a probem with the running of mozilla firefox?

Answer 1

I haven't seen any conflict about IE7 with Firefox...I remember you can't uninstall IE7

Answer 2

Wont be a problem. Mozilla is a different application and has no link to the browser IE7. The only thing that might happen is that it may prompt you to use firefox as a default web browser (once again) but that is normal and easy to fix anyhow. It's just click yes or no :P

Hope this helps.

Answer 3

I'm sorry to report, but Internet Explorer 7.0 cannot be uninstalled as Microsoft is cramming this update down every XP user's throat.

Mozilla Firefox runs separately from Internet Explorer & therefore you won't have any conflicts. In fact, Firefox can even use Internet Explorer within itself with the IE Tab extension (which actually requires Internet Explorer to be installed for use).

Answer 5

No problem. IE 6 will come back automatically so you will have an IE browser to use for all the things that Firefox doesn't do.

Answer 6

There's no need to install I.E. You can run as many browsers as you like and you can run Firefox and I.E. at the same time, if you wish. Browsers are just applications.

Answer 7

There's no need to uninstall IE, but it can be done! My friend just uninstalled all his browsers! Imagine, a browser less computer :(

Answer 8

You can't unsinstall IE because it's part of windows component.
djskeet's right.
There's no problem in having two or more browsers at the same time.
