At some point I'd like to try upgrading the CPU if that's possible

My understanding of IE is that although it is technically an application that runs on top of Windows it's not like your average application and many aspects of IE are inextricably tied in with Windows / aspects of Windows are inextricably tied in with IE. This means you can't really uninstall it and why the standard advice to people choosing not to use IE as their browser is, "Keep IE up to date, but don't use it."curious wrote:...Should I remove IE8...

Correct, support for IE ended at the same time as support for XP ended. As Joe explained the only reason for keeping IE8 active is to allow you to use the MS Update site as that website will only work with IE but unless you have other MS software that is still in-life, e.g Office 2010, and thus likely to require you to make periodic visits to the MS update site then disabling IE8 is probably a good idea after all.aekyall wrote:Re IE8:... as there would be no more patches/security updates to XP, there would also be nothing for IE8 either...
