   Re: Basic IE and fast switching question

   In our family we use both. I have IE as the default. When someone wants to   
   use Firefox, they just have to start it up, and use it as normal. It is the   
   same as for IE.   
      
   To me, it does not make much difference which browser I use. I find them   
   both to be excellent in their own way. Firefox is probably a safer browser   
   when it comes to security issues.

   Hi All;   
      
   I can't seem to find the answer to this, so I thought I would check with the   
   pro's.   
      
   I've just  bought a new laptop. I've set up 2 users (myself and the   
   wife). I've never had to set up different users so all that stuff is new to   
   me.   
      
   My wife likes to use internet explorer and for various reasons, I prefer   
   Firefox. If   
   I set my user account up with Firefox as the default browser, it also sets   
   my wife's setup with the same.   
      
   Is there a way to set her account with IE6 as the default browser and my   
   account   
   with Firefox as the default browser?   
      
   Thanks in advance for your help and suggestions.   
      
   Whizzn
