740223 2009-01-19 23:23:00 There is a plug in for FF which allows it to use the IE engine. You can then switch from one to the other, on the hoof, by clicking on an Icon. The FF tabs etc remain. The the only fault I can find is that remembered passwords are not transferred (probably a good thing).

This is great for the odd website which does not work with FF. You can have FF in one Tab and IE in another. You can also tell it to default to IE for any particular URL. Great for testing Web Pages.
