My employer uses Internet Explorer, and our infoweb is on that homepage. I need firefox for graduate school. (My home internet w/firefox is via satellite which won't fully meet the needs). Can I download firefox to my office desktop without removing Internet Explorer? Can both browsers exist "side-by-side"?

Hi,

Firefox can be installed just like any other programs for the Windows OS. The only constraint may be the office IT policy / restrictions. You can download the latest version here: https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
