IE and activex

[cowboy]

Starting this topic as a result of looking into another issue.
I use Firefox as my browser, always.
I run Vista.

Questions;
1) can I remove, delete, or otherwise disable IE from my world

2) do I need/want activex in my IE world or can I remove, delete or
otherwise disable it from IE, assume I can't do #1

Thanks

Looks like the answers are no and no.

p.s. in IE under
under tools-> internet-> options-> security-> (internet) custom level

what are the best settings under the activex sections ?
disable/enable

Hmm.... I use FFox exclusively on my PC... i just set FFox to be my default internet browswer... then all my links/apps that need an internet window automatically open FFox.

While i dont have any activeX (besides flash), i simply uninstall ActiveX/BHO/Toolbars etc by using Spybot.

Is this what you're trying to do??
