How do I insure that Firefox is my full-time browser -- I was using Internet Explorer prior to downloading Firefox. Shud I delete Internet Explorer?
I want to only use Firefox as my full-time browser. I do not want to use Internet Explorer because it doesn't work on a web site I want to use, but Firefox does work. All I want to know is how do I insure that Firefox will be my full-time browser?

Please do the following:
- Start Internet Explorer.
- Click Tools | Internet Options and then click the Programs tab.
- Remove the checkmark from: "Tell me if Internet Explorer is not the default browser.
- Click Apply/OK and then close Internet Explorer.
- Start Firefox, click the orange Firefox button, go to Options | Options | Advanced.
- In the General tab, menu at the bottom, checkmark "Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser on startup" and then click the "Check Now" button.
- Click OK.
That's all there is to it.
