1. For me it has always ASKED if I want to import IE-settings FF3 does not asks to IMPORT. It actually uses IEs security settings! There is no separation. Its integrated!
2. If you already have high security settings, why wouldn't FF use them also? FFs following is built on it NOT being IE. Now with FF3 there is no separation between what settings are in IE and what are in FF 3. You are computer professionals - you know where to alter settings if you want to! Yeah, so? We want it to be easy! There is nothing easy with installing FF3 on Server 2003 and then, as you are using FF3 on that Server 2003, running into all the restrictions of IE7 in FF unexpectedly. Then having to take a couple hours to try and figure out why there are all these problems. And in that time NOT finding in the FF Tool | Options the settings you are looking for. Then you find the long lines of bitching on forums about FF being integrated with IE! People are flipping over to Opera now.
