Re:Other (Forced) Uses for IE

several points 1 if you fully remove ie the help stuf gets broken. word outlook and evin 3rd party programs whom have followed microsofts orders on how to make the help section the<nobr> <wbr></nobr>.chm files are read by ie only. when you go to find somthing out about your program it starts ie in the background..

2 there are programs to TOTALY remove ie from windows.
one that comes to mind is litepc? primarly for win98 but also works for later releases.

3 i would wonder how forcing users to use ie to update their os is leagle. last i checked ie and the os were suposed to be seperate.
