firefoxie

WANT THE SECURITY and standards support of Firefox but the look and features of Microsoft IE? Now there’s FirefoxIE.

A collection of tools and skins, simply follow the directions at the FirefoxIE web site to download features that will make your Firefox browser similar to IE. Especially helpful for folks making the switch.

    I can’t believe why people would stick with IE in the first place :) It has absolutely no features and renders webpages funnily (I know that’s not a real word). Pun intended.
    I feel I have something different from IE with Firefox, but the idea of skinning Firefox to get "the other" switching is good.

  5. I can’t understand why anyone would ever have trouble switching browsers in the first place. I think it took me about 7 seconds to learn the differences.
