Though I mostly use Firefox unless I run into a poorly written web page that won't work. The tabbed browsing is a treat for such things. Do yourself a favor, take a few minutes ("sharpen your saw", as the old metaphor suggests) and download it. It will co-exist nicely with IE, will import settings automagically so you're off and running 'out of the box'. You can leave IE as the default browser if you like. Another thing I like about Firefox is the plug-ins- the zoom plug-in often helps to see a small image if you insist on a high-res screen, as I do. Best regards, Spehro Pefhany --"it's the network..."
