Just install over the top. IE can't be uninstalled by normal means. It's tightly integrated into Windows. As for Firefox, it uses quite a bit of memory. You might try Opera instead. Many prefer it over FF. [Reply or follow-up to this message] re: IE 0r Firefox Saturday, June 9, 2007 at 8:21 am Posted by Cas (151 messages posted) Hi Carol ! Thanks for your prompt, courteous, and very informative response. (Your number 29867 !!) Will load both IE 6 SP1 and Opera and go from there. Thanks again for your help here as well as many in past.

I kinda thought you were the "Cas" I knew from long ago. I'm a Firefox fan myself, but for speed Opera's better. Still I would hate to have you miss out on at least trying Firefox. Of course, there's no rule against having both installed. Your system may be up to speed? I shouldn't assume every 98 user is running an antique with only 64 MB RAM installed... or, are you?

Thanks for the followup info. Have added memory etc to 98, but have 2000 upgraded, which seems to cover my present needs. I still have your html CAROL pen and quill saved on a floppy!!! Thanks again.
