Will uninstalling CS4 delete Adobe fonts?

Question

I have upgraded to CS6 and want to unistall CS4 to save some space. I noticed in the Unistall app (OSX), under Supporting Components, it wants to delete "Adobe Fonts All." There is no way to uncheck that box only. If I run the uninstall, will I lose my Adobe fonts? Should I copy them and then replace them in the Font folder, or does CS6 have its own copy of these fonts?

You will lose some, since they are no longer in CS6 (Minion Pro for instance). However, nothing stops you from backing up the TTF/ OTF files from font directory before the uninstall and then putting them back into place later. You will have to reinstall CS6 after that, anyway, since removing previous versions will mess up fiel associations and shared components.
