November 14, 200817 yr Is it safe to remove MS .NET Framework, Visual C++ Redistributalbe 2005 & SQL Server 2005 from a home desktop/laptop running XP MCE & XP Pro respectively. Are these needed for other Windows/MS programs/ apps to function properly? Thanks

Many programs require these components, removing them would do more harm than good. SQL Server is used primarily in corporate environments, this can be safely removed.
