I don't want to change my current toolbars, or get rid of internet explorer. Can I still download foxfire and use it to download books,etc. I do NOT want to lose anything that I currently have on my Laptop.

You can use Firefox and IE at the same time. When you install, Firefox it will not remove any data from IE.

Firefox is the name. Foxfire is a bio-luminescent fungus.

Firefox is a completely separate application as it is not a shell for IE or such as it can even run off a flash drive.

Toolbars and Plugins and such used on IE will not work on modern non-IE browsers like Firefox. Basically IE will be left alone as if it did not exist.
