Hello mike,

I have listed below all of the Microsoft products that have Internet
Explorer as a system requirement.

Microsoft software requiring Internet Explorer is mostly a black and
white situation-- If you install the required version of Internet
Explorer, the program will work, if not, you're out of luck completely
and the program that requires it won't function at all.

Although there are a couple products which only lose some minor
functionality if a system does not have the proper version of Internet
Explorer. When that is the case, I make note of it below. Otherwise,
if there is no comment, the program solely depends on Internet
Explorer, and will not function without it, no matter what browser you
have installed.
