install itopen internet explorer in a tab of firefox!
this is great for the occasional times when a page doesn't work correctly in firefox, downloading windows updates, or designing a web page - since you can easily see how your webpage displays in IE with just one click and then switch back to Firefox.
update: i just found out that you can also switch from firefox to ie by clicking the little firefox logo in the bottom right corner. then click the ie logo to switch back. sweet!
2 more updates:
1) after installing go to tools> extensions> then the options for ie tab. add
http://www.microsoft.com/ and
http://update.microsoft.com
to always open in ie. now you can update windows with ease!
2) i submitted this story to digg.com and have well over 2000 diggs! there were some complaints that this extension is old, i don't know. the mozilla extension site said released octber 31st, 2005, but it may have only been updated then. at any rate, it seems many people did not know about it before.
install it
