Have tried to remove firefox from computer. Tried "add/remove harware, programs" from control panel, won't do anything keeps popping back up. Several months ago firefox crashed and computer would not let me log on to the internet. Went back to internet explorer works great. But now I can't seem to get rid of firefox from my computer. My internet carrier (cox.net) say that firefox is not compatible with their internet system. How can I remove firefox from control panel, is taking up space in my computer?

Try Programs or Programs and Features, Firefox is software not hardware.

Look in there for Mozilla Firefox not Firefox.
