I have both Internet Explorer 7 and Mozilla Firefox installed on this PC

upgrade so haven't tried to uninstall it. Any suggestions anyone? Anyone?
Thanks.
Since you are looking at MBs, are you trying to free up room on your
hard disk? There are probably many better alternatives.
Sometimes when folks compose WWW pages, their attitude is if it works
with IE, development is done and they will not be keen to fix problems
concerning other popular browsers - like Firefox.
Also, at some point you may need to use the Microsoft WWW site (a
Windows update for example) and they are going to insist you use some
version of their browser (IE something). Sooner or later, you may
need a reliable IE when you find something that is peculiar in some
non IE browser. If you say you have a problem with Firefox, the next
question is likely going to be "Does it work in IE?". You need to
have a good answer or avoid the question by testing it yourself before
the question gets asked.
I have IE7 and Firefox also, and still have a reason to use IE once in
a great while. Now I use Chrome mostly - I don't even like Firefox
much anymore and used to think it was great! If I have a Chrome
oddity, I will try it in Firefox, then try it in IE.
Unless you have a compelling reason to uninstall IE7 and go back to
IE6, I would leave it.
That is my suggestion.
