Well, here's a new one.  I have been viewing my site this whole time.
Installed Mozilla and it informed my I had to download the flash widget
(button).  Why?  It had to be installed for IE to run.

John,

you can have any number of browsers on your system, but each one will
try to "take over" the association of .htm files when you launch it.  I
believe you can disable this behavior in many of them, but each one is
different.  As for browsers, here are a couple of the major players:

Mozilla (NS7 is based on this, so if it looks good here, it will look
good on NS7 as well; so is the Phoenix browser)
http://www.mozilla.org/

Opera (shareware, but fully functional)
http://www.opera.com/

Netscape (4.x, no longer distributed, but still widely used; VERY
different fron NS7)
http://wp.netscape.com/download/archive/client_archive47x.html

There are a raft of other alternative browsers here:

but the three I mentioned above are probably the most common

Download away...
