hello everyone,
i was looking at my add/remove software window and i noticed there is MICROSOFT SILVERLIGHT which as far as i know makes it possible to see flash content on web and things like this.
my question is, silverlight talkes 4GB of my partition, can i uninstall it ? or will i loose all my browsing capabilities...like seeing flash and all that ?

Higgs, I do not have silverlight on my computer and I have no problems going to any of the sights that I normally go. I don't know for sure if it is a necessary addition or not. Wait for more replies.
