Yes, I use Firefox with my embroidery designs. Actually, I just updated Monogram Wizard Plus and had to do it thru Firefox because IE kept rejecting it (not due to virus scan or anything like that).
Also, just had my mini laptop crash and took it to a friend to look at. Just found out that it was so infected with viruses that he is going to have to wipe it and re-install the OP. Only had it for a year and it was protected by McAfee. He told me to change it to Firefox or Google Chrome; that IE was getting hit hard with all kinds of viruses and the virus protection wasn't catching them. He is a full-time IT guy and he said there was NO virus protection that chouldn't be breached. He said the hackers were building the viruses to self duplicate and could tell what the virus scan was doing and just bypassed it and could automatically build a bypass. And that the viruses these days were so bad that they went deep into the systems.
Scary isn't it?
