IE v FireFox

[anisah]

Hi all,

If I was to use Firefox would I still be able to have IE on my computer so I would have access to both and consequently be able to use both if I wanted to, or would there be some sort of conflict between the two.

There is already a really long thread on this. Go look at it.

yes, both can exist happliy.
yes firefox is a geniunly nicer browser to use
yes both have had security problems (IE's being somewhat more prominent)
No IE cannot be removed from a machine
No firefox cannot be used to go to windows update.

hmmmmmm dont know wat to say really, i like IE better

yeh I think root pretty much covered it. I thim\nk it's good to have both. I use firefox most of the time and IE when I come accross somthing firefox won't load. (e.g. windows update)

The fact that M$ wont let us delete IE sucks! it's like a virus.

Microsoft wants you to think that you don't need anything but their software, and they don't want you using anybody else's.

Duh, that's why I love open source..I hate it when someone forces me choose something. In this case it's M$.
