Firefox And Ie

[fred devliegher]

I'd like to try out Firefox after all the advertising it got here , but I live with IE addicts. So...

- Can I have both installed without conflicts?
- Can I lose IE settings/passwords just by installing?

The Firefox FAQ doesn't help and I don't trust the IE one.

Thanks B)

Im using firefox right now:

just dont let ur IE addicts find out cuz firefox uses the netscape engine :lol:




if ur IE goes bad its a good option to have firefox on hand, actually its a good option to have firefox period with all the shit that IE has been getting ppl into <_<


IE will still retain all its old settings, and Firefox will list all of your IE favorites in the bookmarks list.


ull be fine :)

Firefox uses the Gecko engine. ;)

Just download the zip file ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/fir...Firefox-0.8.zip (ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/0.8/Firefox-0.8.zip) instead of the installer and extract in your user directory and use it from there. Your ie users wont even know its there. ;)

Both use the Gecko engine, thus Netscape is not an engine, just a browser, powered by the gecko engine. ;)

@atiVidiaI -- I can see why you may have been sadly mistaken. For a while Netscape owned Mozilla and all rights to it, until Mozilla created their own Foundation in 2003. Now Mozilla Foundation is funded by Mozilla.org and other outside contributers instead of Netscape.

If you insist on calling it the Netscape engine, then why not call it th AOL engine since Netscape is owned by AOL :ghostface:

Oh the sheer humanity of it all&#33; :&#39;(




Now I remember why I never touched Netscape to begin with.

AOL and I have a very distinct understanding: they promise not to bother me or my PC with their crap software and I promise not to sic my big doggie on the mailman every flippin&#39; time he tries to deliver one of their :censored: browser sign up discs to my mailbox. :devil:

True, you can call it what you want, however, the term is not correct. :P
