Want to use Firefox browser.????? 5 yr old Inspiron. Windows XP Home. Installed Firefox latest version.

Try to open. Access denied (policy). Went to Programs/Default settings. Tried to turn off IE several ways. Response? You need to uninstall IE. Try to uninstall--warnings appear that my Service Packs all depend on IE to work properly. Anyone else out there that hates MS? 

Thanks for your help.

Maybe I wasn't clear. Firefox won't run. When I double click the Firefox icon, the text on the page says "Access denied-policy" The top left bar says: "Access denied-Mozilla Firefox".
