Hi

on Windows Updates last year, I down loaded my updates and one of these was Microsoft xml 4.0 parser SDK
Do I need this on my comp ???

I have Hewlett Pac / windows 98se with Internet Explorer (yuck )
and comcast internet service , bought in yr 2000 upgraded it as far as I could 256 MGZ SD Ram . Can I uninstall this program with messing up my comp? Help please I am retired and do not need it for work purposes if that is what it is for ?

Hi goldenyrs

It won't hurt to leave it where it is, in case you have a program that requires it. As you suspected, it did indeed arrive with a Security Update. Here's a link to Microsoft's full explanation, with all the details http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=330026

Best of luck
