I used Internet Explorer on my Dell laptop (Latitude) up till a few yrs ago when I switched to Firefox. Then last week I switched to Chrome because of slow startups with FFox. All is well with chrome. So I thought I would delete IE, since I note it is still causing some file activity when I run Ccleaner. However, IE does not show up on the Programs list or on the add/remove programs list. so I did a search and found a batch of files related to IE in the Programs/Internet Explorer folder. However, I did not find an exe file for IE. Now, to completely delete IE from my computer, what shall I do? I am afraid to just delete these files because it will not change the registry. I have a suspicion that they are causing some slow operation of the computer at times because I see that they are growing when I check with Ccleaner. I am using XP, everything works well exc as noted above. Shall I also delete Firefox? I thought I should keep it a while as a backup in case I have a prob with Chrome. Apprec your help. Keep it simple – I am definitely NOT a guru. And thx to all for help in the past.
