    I have setup a Debian Etch system, I use Firefox as my browser.

    Now I would like to be able to use IE aswell as Firefox. Is IE a windows only browser or is it portable for Linux?
    Thanks.

    using internet explorer and firefox is possible but one must be default.

    if it is the Debian Etch system , Debian are the APT package management system, its strict policies regarding its packages and the quality of its releases.[6] These practices afford easy upgrades between releases and easy automated installation and removal of packages. Debian uses an open development and testing process. It is developed by volunteers from around the world and supported by donations through SPI, a non-profit umbrella organization for various free software projects.

    It is better to use ie if you in portable linux and also doing the debain stuffs
