New Versions of Firefox and Internet Explorer

03/23/11

Contributed by Karen Compton

Mozilla Firefox 4 (for Windows and Mac) and Internet Explorer 9 (IE9) for Windows were recently released. As with all new product releases, thorough testing and evaluation must be done to ensure that the software functions properly with our enterprise applications such as Homer, Parnassus and Blackboard.

These new Web browsers have not yet been evaluated by ITS, but IE9 is reported to be incompatible with Windows XP. While Firefox is expected to be compatible with college-owned workstations, ITS recommends that users NOT install the new broswer versions on college computers at this time in order to avoid possible compatibility issues with campus applications.
