I, too, use both browsers although I keep Firefox as the default since it is
generally considered to be more secure than IE. If I have trouble with a
site then I switch to IE.
Ninite.com is the easiest way to install the program. I use it for all the
installations I possibly can since it is so automatic and doesn't install
any extra junk.
One thing that makes it especially nice when switching back and forth
between the two browsers is the ability to use the regular Favorites menu in
Firefox. To do this you need to install the add on Plain Old Favorites.
This is available from
http://www.iosart.com/firefox/plainoldfavorites/
Open the link in Firefox and install from there.
I never use the bookmarks in FF but always use the Favorites menu. The only
quirk I have found is that when adding a favorite from FF it works best when
choosing the Add favorite and then using alt tab twice to move away from the
window and then right back. Then just tab to the add button as usual.
One other difference between IE and FF is that to open a private window in
FF you find it in the file menu while in IE it is in the tools menu.

Subject: [JAWS-Users] Mozilla or Internet Explorer browser
I am using W7, internet explorer and latest jaws. I know some on this list
use Mozilla as a browser and I would appreciate info from you and
especially if you have used both mozilla and internet explorer. I have
been looking at mozilla and thinking of installing it on my old bedroom
computer which is an old computer but still a good one. Is this something
I can do myself and is this a large learning curve?I would appreciate your
thoughts, good or bad Where can mozilla be downloaded from?.
Thanks much,
