I don't know, since I rarely install things. Fact is, though, they don't PRETEND to give me the option. That's what makes me furious. |
Well, while I can understand that it might be annoying, I find it a little unfair to totally bash the program for it since it's pretty common for Windows programs to do that.
If I had to guess, they did it to make it more user-friendly... it's usually not the computer-saavy folk that alternative browsers need to worry about wooing, it's the people out there who treat their computers like mysterious black boxes.

Well, what I meant was, just because some people write crappy plugins, it doesn't necessarily mean plugins are a bad idea in general.
As for importing IE security options... er, I have to admit I don't understand why you'd *want* to. FF and Opera handle various security settings much differently (and IMHO better) than IE does.
There are reasons to dislike FF, I'm just not sure the ones you're choosing are ones I agree with.
