It’s not a security concern, but teachers should be made aware that some websites were not built with cross-browser compatibility and may not function the same way in Firefox that they do in IE. That being said, most sites do a good job of rendering content with Firefox, and it’s only a select few who build sites with Microsoft tools and never check to see if it will work in another browser that are an issue.

I have a solution to a problem that may involve deploying FireFox because it seems to have fewer glitches in running the sites they need to run. Are there security concerns in installing Firefox for all users? Scott *** This Email was sent by an educator at Mendota IL.
