package remove IE
Nah, that wouldn't let us remove this steaming pile of pig shite.
Part of that IE is just an application built on top of the mshtml.dll rendering engine. This rendering engine is an embedded control for other applications and is also used by vendors other than Microsoft (such as Symantec).
Some vendors (such as Valve) have realized that's a fucking terrible idea and switched over to embedding other browsers (Chrome Embedded Framework in the case of Steam).
So, when you say "remove IE" do you mean just remove the executable or do you remove the DLL, breaking any applications that rely on it?
Incidentally, the embedded control is also why you should keep the version of IE up to date on Windows even if you don't use IE.
