I have never used or configured outlook express and I do not intend to use either internet explorer or netscape in windows. Indeed, I do not intend to use netscape in linux either. I intend to use konqueror and kmail.
I was wondering if I should uninstall windows explorer and netscape from windows and also uninstall outlook express.
