Title: Why is Internet Explorer still working when it was uninstalled?

I uninstalled it from "add or remove programs" in the control panel and it successfully uninstalled (or so it said), however, when I attempt to open a link from an e-mail, instead of the link opening in Firefox, it opens in IE as if it were never uninstalled.

So how the heck is this happening when it was uninstalled and doesn't appear to even be on the computer? More importantly, how do I get rid of this POS program? I'm tired of fighting with it.

Has anyone else experienced this?

I second the motion.

Even though I have Apple's Safari loaded it does not force me to use it. So it sets there. Since I use Firefox for my browser I never have to use it. Not that Safari is a bad browser and there are things I like about it, but I do not like the inability to change the default Search Engine which is Google. Since I use Scroogle and ixquick it is an annoyance to not be able to make one of them the default Search Engine.

Buy a Mac? Kind of an expensive option if what you want to do is just get rid of IE. You can get almost any flavor of Linux for nothing and run it alone or as a dual boot system if, for example, you're a gamer. I guess Microsux does have some advantage there but almost any Linux beats it hands down on about everything but games.
