Unlike Windows, where installing every program seems to require shitting DLLs and Registry keys all over the place, installing an app on OS X rarely involves much more than placing it in the Applications folder. And removing it is just as easy as trashing it. Just trash IE... that's all you ned to do.

Tell 'em to drop your dosage, yeah?

Or... maybe increase it.

Hmm.
