Yes, I also use both, as I still need IE for certain online banking
sites.

Hopefully with the passing of time and increased popularity of safer
browsers like Firefox, web designers will slowly stop creating sites
with ActiveX controls. (Having said that, as long as there is the
facility for _any_ kind of programming language in websites and e-
mail clients, there will be malicious programmers looking to exploit
it.)

You may want to install this handy extension for Firefox. It will
enable you to right-click any link in Firefox and open that link up
with IE. Bit of a time-saver.

P.S. Keyboard Cowboy has in the past posted some links to alternate
browsers that handle ActiveX. Those interested can search the PCTT
archives for more info.
