Hello Glennis, yes seems safe : http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows7/how-do-i-install-or-uninstall-internet-explorer-9

but if you want keep it as a second option (except you already have another browser as a second option), all of us we have a second option(and a third...)......in case something going wrong, you never known... do you ?

thank you

I think Microsolft recently installed Internet Explorer 11 on my computer. Next time I need a computer I'm going to look at Apple. Microsoft is getting very dictatorial.

Many thanks for your help. Cheers, Glennis
