Safe to delete IE?

I have some spyware I can't get rid of. It doesn't affect Mozilla, but strictly IE. I don't use IE anyway, so it would deleting IE cause any conflicts with XP?

Nope it will work fine though its going to be a mother fucker to get rid of it totally despite what few critics say.

Nah it should be ok to delete it.

it's not safe to NOT delete IE, nuff' said.

bill gates will come to your house, kick you in the balls and delete any browser besides IE. do it at your own risk.

i dont think you can completely take ie off your pc, kinda felsafe incase you axidently delete main file.
on xp i remember a place you can always put it back on pc, but have not found in vista

THCBongman, there's always a way to remove any type of malware, especially spyware.

Which antivirus program's have you tried? Have you tried running them in safe mode? Do you have Hijack this? If so do a scan and post it here, I can tell you what if anything to remove.

Thing is, you shouldn't go on happily with an alternative while malware is still in your system!

amen to that,

do you have a filename for this spyware, if not, then explain the specifc problem your having.....

deleting IE seems to me to be cracking a walnut with a tactical nuclear missile.

hijack this is a great program

You can't delete IE.

You simply cannot.
