Many of them are eager to use FireFox, but FF has presented a strange 
problems. We are using roaming profiles and our offices are spread out and 
many people use many different workstations. All works well, except FF! When 
you log out, it gives an error saying you can't replace a file when the file 
exists! I kow this is just a permission problem somewhere and it won't allow 
the user to update the profile on the server, but I have played and played 
with permissions and nothing works. Currently, it was set at 777 and it still 
wouldn't allow copying the files!
