So, I'm trying to install Firefox through an MSI on that beast known
as Windows. You can read about it in gory detail at
http://forums.frontmotion.com/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=502&p=1799&hilit=INSTALLLEVEL#p1799

One of the suggestions there is to use
c:\windows\system32\shmgrate.exe OCInstallReinstallIE

However, it does not appear that shmgrate.exe exists on Vista or Win7.
Can it be installed? Should it be installed? Is it just in a
different location. We'd be using this when we install machines, so
in theory a Reinstall of IE shouldn't be a problem. Obviously, I'd
test it. :)

Maybe SharePoint 2010 will allow us to just use Firefox as the default
browser. One can dream, right?
