Extension installations are just as dangerous as ActiveX, assuming that you go to any other place than the official Addons site.

I freely admit that I know little to nothing about network policies and administration on a professional level, but if Firefox was more roll-out-friendly, I think it would fare much better in terms of a corporate alternative to IE. I know that MSI installers will probably happen eventually, but being able to centrally lock down aspects of Firefox is also an important consideration which to the best of my knowledge is currently lacking.

I'm not saying that Firefox is bad for corporate usage, but it could certainly be more attractive and safer.

"Actually, I'm amazed the IE number is that high." s/high/low - right?

I may say that Firefox may "force" you to update, but if you're administrator doesn't let you you have to put up with the insanely annoying "Software Update Failed" dialog EVERY time you start it.

And the one(s) at a certain organization I patronize don't.

Lurker: That sucks. Is there a bug open on this problem?
