You can't uninstall IE6. It is a part of your operating system. It is not
listed in Add/Remove programs. IE8 will essentially "take over" and that's
that. If you ever remove IE8, it will revert back to IE6.

Download IE8 to your Desktop. Do not use Windows or Microsoft Updates.

Internet Explorer 8 download:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...3-08cdecd8852b

Restart your computer. With no other programs running, disable your
anti-virus program and any spyware or spam programs you may have. If you
are running a third party firewall, disable it and enable the Windows
firewall.

Now install IE8 from the Desktop. When you're done, restart your computer
twice and then make sure your disabled programs are running again.

So, if I install IE8, can I uninstall IE6 without affecting OE6?

If you install IE7 or IE8, IE6 will still be on your machine, you just
won't see it. OE6 will not be affected at all.
