Being a bit of a self confessed nerd, I get very particular about the way my PC is set up and I hate having to change. I spend most of my working day in a browser and my preferred browser is Firefox. Unfortunately our preferred CRM favours IE which means that I have had to to use IE. That is until now.

There’s a nifty little add in for firefox called IE tab. It allows you to use MS technologies en firefox. Just don’t forget to add the URL of your application once you’ve installed it.

How…

From the top… tools>addon> search IE tab and follow the prompts

After the restart … tools > IE tab options > enter the URL of your application (for the root folder) followed by asterisk eg http://mycrmserver/theinstallationfolder/*

Tada!!

Enjoy, now you can enjoy accessing all you Microsoft technologies from Firefox!
