    Why bother? It's more of a security risk to use 3rd party programs to update Windows. IE + Windows Update + Windows is a one-vendor closed system. It's not perfect, but it's still pretty good.

    I still use windows update through IE. Just thought it was neat that someone actually came up with a FF version.
