The venerable Web browser continues to evolve. No longer just an application for displaying HTML, the Web browser now has to handle JavaScript, PHP, Java, Active X controls, loosely coupled Web services, plug-ins, multimedia, XML, RSS feeds and more. The Web browser has become an integral part of the total computer experience. All of those expectations make choosing a preferred browser more important than many ever thought it would or should be.
值得尊敬的网页浏览器继续进化。不再只是一个显示HTML的应用程序，网页浏览器现在要处理JavaScript， PHP，Java，Active X 控件，松耦合网页服务，插件，多媒本，XML，RSS feeds等等。网页浏览器已经成为计算机经验中主要部分。所有这些期望使得选择一个首选浏览器比它将要或需要做的更重要。

Microsoft Internet Explorer 7 (IE7) and Mozilla Firefox 2 are the latest Web browser contenders for your attention (apologies to fans of Opera and other Web browsers, but these are the two that garner the most attention). Many of us have tried both and made a decision about which is the browser of choice.

微软Internet Explorer 7 (IE7)和Mozilla Firefox 2是最新的网页浏览器竞争者（这可能对不住Opera和其它网页浏览器的fans，但这两个是最引人注目的）。我们中的一些人已经尝试了这两者并作出了抉择。
If you have chosen Firefox 2, then you may want to uninstall IE7. But this brings up two questions: Can you uninstall IE7 and if you can how do you do it? The answers are: Yes, you can and here's how.
