Does anyone know a legit way on removing IE from windows XP? How to avoide file corruption and what not. Note this is IE built in windows xp.

hey man
there is a prog in the C:\windows\. i unfortunately can't remember wut it was, but if you run it you can pass option like silent uninstall, uninstall on reboot, etc

i dont know what if done but i dont have iexplore anymore lolz, and i don't get any errors ( igot win xp sp2 )





IE = CRAP

Yeah that happens on any machine. You can't just type in a filename and expect it to work. IE's program directory isn't even in your path. How could Windows possibly know you want to run the .exe unless you tell it where to look for it?

And to (try to) answer you question asTHma, go here (http://www.tweakxp.com/tweak1241.aspx).

I was thinking about doing it the way the link describes; but im itching to know how it can be completely removed from the XP partition. I have tried alot of things but many end in file corruption and errors. Im still searching

you can remove it but it has no use, because it is integrated in the explorer shell.
example: open a random map on ur winb0x and type some adress. still works :/

FLX

there is a tool called LiteXP, litepc.com i guess..... have a look at it.

If you can wait for few days..... i can manage time to find out all dll's that litexp removes to remove IE from your computer.

If you have time... why don't you fire up total uninstall before removing IE with litexp and run it after reboot and let us know the difference.

as easy as that dude!
