Well, aren't you the stubborn little ninny of a comapny, Microsoft.

Just ignore it ^_^

It's 456 KB of wasted space.

Unless your computer is unbelievably poopty, that shouldn't be an issue.

No, count it as 456KB of system required stuff.
Just think of it like the /windows folder. Unless you are extremely retarded, you should keep it.

Really, if you uninstall it via the Add/Remove Programs Control Panel, all it will do is remove the shortcuts to IE (that is what happened in your case).  I just hate that MS is FORCING us to keep IE in our systems.  D:

Oh well, just set another browser as the default.

Uh no. My old computer with Win 95 wasn't. My old HP Omnibook with XP Professional wasn't.

There's a reason Microsoft Office XP and XP Pro costed a lot of money. It wasn't pre-installed. Shitty substitutes like Wordpad were.

Um... no.

The only time it is included with a computer is if the manufacturer preinstalls word. Otherwise, you have to pay to buy it.

IE isn't even listed in Add/Remove Programs to whoever mentioned that.

It is if you go to the Add/Remove Windows Components Tab (I called it Remove Windows Programs...).  But like I said, all it will do is remove IE shortcuts on the desktop and in the Start menu.
