*i already made this post on another forum, but i'll paste it here to see if you guys help, cuz generally lapis or b00sta will bust out with the geek-knowledge that helps me out, which this forum kicks ass for*

is there a way that i can get internet explorer to leave me the [IMAGE] alone without deleting it? because, having common sense, i dont use it for anything, but it opens up and gives me error messages sometimes.
i just want it to never open up unless i want it to. or will deleting it not do anything? i've always had it in mind that it'd screw up me computer if i deleted it. thanks.
(sorry for the language, but this program is the most annoying thing since TV)

IERadicator. If you have anything below Windows ME, use 9xLite.

That's why I use Windows ME, swap in the Windows 95 shell, and remove IE.

You won't believe how fast this PC runs.

how exactly do ME and XP differ?

ME is based off of the Windows 9x kernel, XP is based off the Windows NT kernel.

The only drawback to ME is that it has an issue with large amounts of RAM, but that is easily fixed by adding a line to system.ini and it's all good.

Compare my Windows ME setup to Windows XP, and I think you'd choose to go my way. My system is almost completely immune to worms and most hack attempts, since I no longer have Internet Explorer installed. Pack that up with Outpost Firewall and Avast! Anti-Virus.. and it feels so very warm and cozy.
