Hi Ken,

According to this page IE is required for code download, cryptography, zone
detection and language support.

What do you mean load the machine with IE?
You don't need to load IE to run .net programs, but part of .net rely on
components installed with IE 5.01,
and unless you try to run .net programs on Windows NT 4.0 or Windows 98
(First edition) you won't to upgrade IE.

Happy Coding!
