What happens if i uninstall Internet Explorer 7 from Windows Xp

I'm running Windows Xp as my operating system. I'm using Internet Explorer 7 as my web browser. I'm planning to uninstall Internet Explorer 7 from my system and would like to install Firefox on my system. Before installing Firefox on my system, i would like to know that what happens if i uninstall Internet Explorer from my system. Is there any problem if i uninstall Internet Explorer 7 from my system? Does any body knows about it? Kindly suggest me your views on the above issue. Any kind of information on the above issue would be appreciated.

I don't think there's any kind of problem, until you uncheck "unable to delete comp. running programs" from your system. After doing that it will not allow you to open a website, which only opens on the explorer.

It is highly recommended that you just try to delete all the shortcut of your Internet Explorer 7 from your desktop. And then try to install Firefox on your system. It will not harm your system and you can use it whenever you want to use it. You can find it under All programs on your start menu.
