Silverlight is a internet browser plugin (like Adobe Flash, Shockwave) from Microsoft.

It’s perfectly safe to install and it does not slow down your computer.

    It is safe because it is by Microsoft. It is just an add-on which is useless (in my point of view) and just takes up space like what that second guy said.
