[gui-talk] IE and Firefox on the same Computer?

[Steve Pattison]

Hi Peter,

I can't answer your other questions but you can definitely have Firefox 
and Internet Explorer running on the same computer without any problems. 
the main issue you'll need to decide is which browser you want to be 
your default browser.  I have Internet Explorer as my default browser 
and start Firefox manually when I want to use it, other people do the 
opposite.  I hope this helps.

Regards Steve.

    Please excuse me for asking a seemingly stupid question. It comes 
from
my tendency to air on the side of caution when installing software and 
Web
browsers. Do Firefox and IE 6, 7, and 8 get along together on the same
computer okay or should I have only one or the other browser on each of 
our
machines, We're currently using IE 66, but intend to upgrade to 7 or 8 
in
the near future. No we don't have three different versions of IE running 
on
the same computer. That is just a point of clarification. I recall using
Both Netscape and Internet Explorer on the same desktop many years ago
without any problems. We're running Windows XP Home SP2 on both machines 
and
use JAWS 10.

    I know of one individual who claimed to have both browsers installed 
on
their desktop. We could launch Firefox without any trouble, but IE was 
no
where to be found.

    Perhaps I'm about to answer my own question. I'm running File Zilla 
on
both machines. Is that program also a Mazilla product or is it from 
another
vendor?Thanks for your help and suggestions.

Regards Steve
