There's a safe way to remove most software from your distro which you don't want and don't need.
Open the Menu and go to System and then open Package Manager aka Synaptic Package Manager.
Open the search box and enter whatever you wish to remove and then see what other software and dependencies will be removed with it.
The beauty of the Package manager is it alerts you to what other software relies on other shred software and its shared dependencies which can break things if removed.
One must exercise caution and care and common sense when removing default software packages as if done haphazardly can and most likely will break a working Linux distro and I speak from my own personal experience.
There are other ways to remove the unwanted software however the Package Manager aka Synaptic Package Manager I've found to be the safest way.
I'm a Linux user not a Linux guru.
I can understand not wanting to keep software that will never be used and taking up space on a hard drive because I use 40 GB and 80 GB hard drives.
My 2 cents worth.
