Personally I will suggest you to use IE7.It is free to download.
U cab download from here:

That will only remove the shortcut to IE. It still exists on your HDD (hidden). There is no way you can completely remove IE, rather do not. Coz MS has tied IE to Windows. Fully installing IE (or manually deleting IE files) can break your Windows installation.

^^^ Thats what I said. No method will remove IE completely.

U dont need any XP CD to uninstall IE...but if U again install it....than XP CD will be asked.
