Yep Ed, you can download it, use it, try it out, whatever and still leave IE on your system. They do not interfere with each other on my machines.

I keep IE on mine because on rare occasions I find sites that will not work on firefox but they will work on IE. Something to do with macro flash or sumthin' like that.

As far as I know Fdisk went away when Windows 98 died. I know I can only get XP to do what it calls a "clean install" in place of Fdisk. But in my mind it's not as good as Fdisk.
