Mozilla Firefox Installation Instructions

Page 1 2 3 4 5

The Mozilla Firefox browser is an alternative to Internet Explorer. Since Firefox does not run ActiveX or active scripting, it is much less susceptible to unwanted installations of adware, spyware and viruses.

Besides it being a safer browser, it's just an overall better browser with many options such as tabbed browsing for example. Some websites however are designed for Internet Explorer only. If you find a site acting strangely, then you may have to use Internet Explorer for that site. Use Internet Explorer as a last resort.

Installing Firefox:

Go to the Mozilla Firefox download page and download the Firefox Setup file to a folder on your computer. Open the folder and double click the Firefox Setup 1.x.exe file to begin the installation. If needed, click Run once or twice. Click Next:

Bullet the "I Accept the terms of the License Agreement" and click Next:

Bullet Custom and click Next:

Click Next:

Uncheck any boxes that are checked and click Next:

Leave all three boxes checked and click Next:

Click Next:

Uncheck the "Use Firefox Start as my Home Page" and click Next:

If desired, bullet "Microsoft Internet Explorer" and click Next. When Firefox is done importing from Internet Explorer successfully, click Finish. The basic installation of Firefox is now complete.
