Use Firefox and still infect IE.

From what little I understand about Windows you can't since IE is also your file browser so without it you wouldn't get a desktop or anyway of browsing your hard drive.

From what I understand it is this integration of IE into the OS that allows some really cool stuff to be done, like what they did in the real estate database that makes it Windows IE only accessible, and the horrendous stuff like all the issues with virus and stuff.

i heard soon microsoft would come with ie 7, it was ment to relase it later this year, but because they lost some % of surfers using ie to firefox they decide to relase ie7 this summer or so, they say they focused with ie7 on the safity of surfing the net. still i am afraid to change to ie7 and i bett it wont take long before they find new problems again after the realese of ie7 .

I'm not a big IE fan, but I can't wait to see what's in store for IE7. Not only is the standards engine going to be reworked, but also the security aspect.

With tabbed browsing, IE7 is going to seem like a Firefox clone.
