Even Microsoft Help Uses Firefox

I’m not sure if the image being uses was populated dynamically or if the person at Microsoft that actually put together the help files is using Firefox instead of IE7.
I’m working through updating a few things on my computer and noticed that the screen capture image to help the user work through the steps to do a download and install was from a Firefox window.
I thought that was pretty interesting, don’t you?















That shows firefox because you’re downloading the OGA plugin that firefox needs installed. If it was IE, they’d just install the ActiveX plugin.
So of course the screenshot is Firefox, you wouldn’t go through those steps in IE.
Well put a pointy hat on me and stick me in a corner. What a dunce I am! That makes complete sense. Thanks Pat!
hahaha this is an excellent shot! I will send it to my IE-users friends hehehe
