Do I need to keep internet explorer

I hate internet explorer. Can I delete it from my computer. It is taking up space (limited space) and it keeps crashing?
Please say yes.
Theresa
PS How can I delete AOL it is just taking up space also.

@the-edmeister, there is no use of removing a newer version when you can only get an old version out of it.
And now to get max. HDD space from your old HDD.
Delete all files in the this folder (WARNING: Do not delete the folder itself. Just it's contents.)
C:\Windows\SoftwareDistribution\Download
This can free up much space if you installed some windows updates recently.
If you do not uninstall windows updates, then you can free even more space.
Just follow the instructions on this website-
http://www.astahost.com/info.php/Remove-Windows-Update-Uninstall-Information_t19170.html
Copy the VB code on the website to Notepad and click save. While naming the file, be sure SURE the file name is "RemoveWindowsUninstall.vbs" (" symbol INCLUDED) when in the Save Dialog.
Now execute the VBscript and it will delete Windows update un-installation files.

  • Need to download internet explorer

    I keep receiving two different messages no matter what browser I am using.
    I either get "need to download internet explorer" or "need to update flash player"
    It won't let me do anything after that.
    Please, help.

    What do I need to do to stop this from popping up.  I can't do anything from that point forward.

  • I need to install Internet Explorer 6 or greater on my iMac to work with a program.  How is the best way to do that?

    I need to install Internet Explorer 6 or greater on my iMac (intel processor) running MacOS 10.6.8 to work with a program.  How is the best way to accomplish this?

    There is no way.  IE has not been available for the Mac for years now.
    Your only option is to install native Windows and use that - either through a bootcamp dual-boot scenario, or use a virtual machine to run windows in (eg. Parallels or VMWare Fusion).  Either way, you will need a full retail install disk for Windows.
    P.S. the last version of IE for Mac was for PPC machines, and it was discontinued in 2003.

  • Urgent need to install Internet Explorer or replacement

    Please urgent need to install Internet Explorer or replacement

    No hay, no ha habido y probablemente nunca habra Internet Explorer que corra nativo en iOS en iPads/iPods/iPhones. Hubo una version para OS X, pero Microsoft dejo de actualizarla y soportarla desde el 2002. Y al haber sacado su marca propia de tabletas, la Surface, MS ya no tiene aliciente para tener IE en la tableta de la competencia.
    Se puede hacer una especie de "chachuyo" y tener IE indirectamente en un iPad. A traves del producto Citrix, la tableta se vuelve una "pantalla remota" de un servidor Windows, donde hay el genuino IE. Parallels acaba de sacar un producto con funcionalidad similar. Pero son muy caros y requieren ademas tener la infraestructura de la PC a donde se comunica la iPad.
    Ya probaste con otros navegadores ademas del Safari para ver si despliega la pagina? Veo al menos 6 diferentes navegadores alternativos para la iPad, como Opera, Mercury, Chrome, etc.

  • I am using an iMac with OS 10.5.8 and either Safari or Firefox. What should I do if I need to access internet explorer?

    There hasn't been an IE that would work on a Mac since 2002. The only way to use IE today is to run Windows on your Mac:
    Windows on Intel Macs
    There are presently several alternatives for running Windows on Intel Macs.
    1. Install the Apple Boot Camp software.  Purchase Windows XP w/Service Pak2, Vista, or Windows 7.  Follow instructions in the Boot Camp documentation on installation of Boot Camp, creating Driver CD, and installing Windows.  Boot Camp enables you to boot the computer into OS X or Windows.
    2. Parallels Desktop for Mac and Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  Parallels is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    3. VM Fusionand Windows XP, Vista Business, Vista Ultimate, or Windows 7.  VM Fusion is software virtualization that enables running Windows concurrently with OS X.
    4. CrossOver which enables running many Windows applications without having to install Windows.  The Windows applications can run concurrently with OS X.
    5. VirtualBox is a new Open Source freeware virtual machine such as VM Fusion and Parallels that was developed by Solaris.  It is not as fully developed for the Mac as Parallels and VM Fusion.
    Note that Parallels and VM Fusion can also run other operating systems such as Linux, Unix, OS/2, Solaris, etc.  There are performance differences between dual-boot systems and virtualization.  The latter tend to be a little slower (not much) and do not provide the video performance of the dual-boot system. See MacTech.com's Virtualization Benchmarking for comparisons of Boot Camp, Parallels, and VM Fusion. Boot Camp is only available with Leopard or Snow Leopard. Except for Crossover and a couple of similar alternatives like DarWine you must have a valid installer disc for Windows.
    You must also have an internal optical drive for installing Windows. Windows cannot be installed from an external optical drive.

  • Can I download Firefox and keep Internet Explorer as my default browser?

    I am being prompted to install Firefox to use the MobileMe site with my IPAD. Before I download, I'd like to know if I can KEEP Internet Explorer as my Default Browser. I am NOT great with my computer and therefore would have difficulty fixing any technical challenges.

    Yes you can keep IE as your default browser when installing Firefox, just answer NO when Firefox asks if you want to set it as the default browser.
    What's that about the iPad? You can't install either IE or Firefox in the iPad, neither has a version for iOS.

  • Won't let me download says i need to close internet explorer?

    won't let me download adobe says i need to close internet explorer?

    Download what?  Flash Player?
    Yes, you need to close all instances of Internet Explorer during the installation, as well as any other applications that use Flash Player (messengers, chat clients, skype, etc).

  • I need to install Internet Explorer on my iMac G5 (OSX vs 10.4.11). Is there a secure source for downloading an older version of IE that will work with my system?

    I'm not sure I properly asked my question. I have a need to post a resume to an employer who requires that the information be submitted via Internet Explorer. My OSX vs 10.4.11 will not accept downloads of the current IE version and Microsoft no longer supports any earlier versions that would work with my Mac. A web search shows thousands of download possibilties, but I am leery of what kind of schmutz might come with them. Has anyone in the community have any recent experience with a secure Internet Explorer download

    Probably best to go to a library and submit your resume there.
    You can make many web browsers claim to be ie.  Here is how.
    TenFourFox -- It's a port of the latest FireFox to run on older hardware and software.

  • I need to run internet explorer how do i begin?

    i have been fooling around trying to get this military website to work properly with no luck. after contact the help line for the website they told me it is only compatible with internet explorer. researching boot camp i purchased an external hardrive to partition for windows under the impression that that was one of the reasons why. i do not have a windows disk and i need to run IE. i tryed masking safari in the develop toolbar but IE isnt highlighted therefore i cant attemp that way. please help....
    Matt

    I don't know if this still works with the new version if Safari but it's worth a try.
    Launch Safari. From the Safari menu bar top of your screen click Safari. From the drop down menu click Preferences then select the Advanced tab.
    Select:  Show Develop menu in menu bar
    Now from the Safari menu bar again, click Develop > User Agent
    Try IE 7, 8, or 9.

  • I need to run internet explorer for a program I use.But can't access it is this due to running Firefox

    I noticed that when I went to use Internet Explorer a few weeks ago it would say it stopped running. I thought that it was just a fluke. But when I try to download things in my MTC program they will start to download then just stop.MTC needs Internet Explorer 7 to work. And I don't like spending money on a program to find Foxfire isn't supported,or Craig's List or Windows Mail. What gets me is that Wildblue says I need to use this program and I have nothing but problems .Why does it always reset,that's dam frustrating ,reading something...BAM it's gone , Connection Reset.Can anyone help me get Internet explorer back?

    When you originally downloaded the Yosemite installer it was sent to your Applications folder, it did it's thing and then deleted itself. In order to avoid that, you'd need to quit the installer before running it, copy it to a different location and then start it again to actually run the upgrade. So you'll have to download the Yosemite installer again to install it on an external.

  • How to uninstall Java (JRE MSI) while keeping Internet Explorer open?

    I have a situation where I need to have the ability to uninstall Java (currently JRE 1.7 Update 75, but could really be any version in the future).  We are using the JRE MSI.  I know how to uninstall it silently just fine, but the gotcha problem comes in that we have thousands of computers and some of them may have IE running during the uninstall.
    Now normally I would just use taskkill.exe to terminate IE ahead of time then run Java uninstall.  However, we are being told for the uninstall, this isn't an option even if we notify the customers about IE closing.  So I'm looking for a command line way to uninstall Java, but allow it to be successfully uninstalled if IE is running (If a reboot is required after the fact, that is fine).
    I have tried several things without success already:
    MSIRESTARTMANAGERCONTROL=Enable (And Disable)
    IEOPEN=1
    IERESTART=1
    In every case, I keep getting a Java Window that reads the below:
    If I choose Later, then it will continue upon the next restart of the computer, which would be fine, except there doesn't seem to be a way to choose this option using the command line or a property??
    I would be even be happy to trick Java into thinking it isn't being used currently even if the browser is open, but I can't seem to figure out how Java knows it is being used or not currently used.
    (FYI, if you install Java while IE is running that is fine, and if you don't close IE after the fact then run the uninstall command right after, it uninstalls fine even though IE is running.  I believe that is the case because the plug-in didn't fully get activated in IE until a close and reopen).
    Any ideas on how this can be accomplished?  Thanks.

  • Need to install internet explorer tab on firefox 10.0.2 on a mac? is there such a thing?

    I downloaded firefox 10.0.2 on mac - need to install ie tab - is this available?

    Hi tsherer,
    IE Tab is currently not compatible with 10.0.2:
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ie-tab/
    You could try installing the Nightly Tester tools add-on to force compatibility. You could also try looking at some of the other add-ons available that have similar functions.
    Hopefully this helps!

  • Need to find Internet Explorer version used in AD

    Hi,
    I used Microsoft Assessment and Planning Toolkit for finding all SQL server instances a while ago.
    Now I need to find filtered IE versions on AD computers. I am pretty sure that MAPT could help to accomplish that.
    1. Yes or No?
    2. I didn't install it yet... in case of YES in 1 could somebody please provide steps for filtering IE only  in the GUI.
    Thanks.

    You can call javascript function using ExternalInterface.call having code:
    var browser=navigator.appName; // browser name
    var b_version=navigator.appVersion;
    var version=parseFloat(b_version); // version
    document.write("Browser name: "+ browser);
    document.write("Browser version: "+ version);
