I'll be quick...
1. Don'r remove IE. You need it for Windows Update.
2. Install what you want for the browser and accept it's "use me as the default"
I did this to the kids (and wife) machine and it's been sweeeet. Adaware, Spybot have been coming clean so I don't worry as I used to.

I've been on here b4 about this - I won't go into detail now - I just want an opinion on me removing Ie and using another browser to download it I think it is the only way I can get it to work properly.
Thanks in advance.
