I understand Internet Explorer is problematic and fraught with security issues, and just now I've been getting Internet Explorer script errors along with Messenger error messages upon attempting to enter a Yahoo chat room. I have Firefox installed; that being the browser I will use after I uninstall Internet Explorer 6, which does not display in the program list in my Add/Remove Programs window. I'm not sure if my inability to enter Yahoo chat rooms is tied to the Internet Explorer issue; however, I and getting error messages from both Yahoo Messenger and Internet Explorer when I try to enter chat. Yesterday, I installed a new version of Norton Internet Security - but I doubt that has anything to do with the problem at hand, as I have been able to get into chat since I installed Norton. However, today, after receiving a series of prompts to update Yahoo Messenger (to version 8.1), I removed yupdater (7.0 works fine for me, and no one seems to like the new version Messenger).

There is no "official" way to uninstall I.E. Microsoft made it an itegral part of Windows. Just don't use it. And keep your Norton up to date.

Go to START | SETTINGS | CONTROL PANEL | ADD/REMOVE PROGRAMS | ADD/REMOVE WINDOWS COMPENTS. Uncheck the box for IE.
From the horse's mouth.

In ADD OR REMOVE PROGRAM left pane simply click the third one ADD/REMOVE WINDOWS COMPONENTS. Your WINDOWS CD must be in. There you can add or remove more useful or unuseful (!) programs and components.
You don't need to. In fact you might need it one day.It doesn't take much disk space. It's harmless if you don't use it. I am also using firefox but I found that some applications is not compatibale with it and is compatibale with internet explorer. I agree with you that Microsoft internet explorer became a very slow internet browser, has lots of security threats.
If you have Firefox you do need a version of IE also but it will cover the version of IE that you have. Firefox and a lot of other browsers work off of IE. I have both Mozilla/Firefox and ATT Yahoo and have been told I still need to keep IE on my computer even though it never comes up.
