Can you access your SuSE filesystem with Firefox like you can with
Konqueror?
I use Konq for filesystem maint much of the time...

I use Firefox on the Web exclusively... it's functionally better than IE, and
it's secure, and it doesn't crash.

Firefox had over 100 vulnerabilities fixed in the last 2 years.
I would not call that secure.

Konqueror had 10 fixed (and none as critical).

Konq for the web just doesn't work because they haven't kept up/

I used konqueror as main webbrowser and firefox just for the websites that
konqueror does not handle (a very small number).
