re: Got It! Monday, July 12, 2004 at 2:46 pm Posted by Steve (19681 messages posted) Firefox is just kind of a scaled down version of Mozilla, I suggest not worring about installing it as long as you like Mozilla. Whats important is not to use IE for much, since the malware writers have it's number. Getting all the malware off a computer for the first time can take repeated attempts. If you still have a few problems just post back. I am still getting use to using a new browser also, since i had been a die hard IE user. So just concentrate on learning how to use your new browser, and don't worry about installing Firefox also, though you could if you wanted.

I tend to only utilize ie for windows updates and what not which is required for that pupose, see you around kiddo :) On Monday, July 12, 2004 at 2:08 pm, Pamela wrote: >I got Mozilla.
