I was unable to access my student classroom to do my assignments suddenly. After 6 hrs. online with their tech support, they said something in my IE was corrupted. They helped my get onto Mozilla/Firefox. I was able to work my studying (I am student in advanced grad courses) using Firefox. I love the site, hate my homepage(non-existent) but need to find out the answers and whatever you can offer to help, regarding to the original question asked (above).

No, both browsers will peacefully co-exist. You can even have them running at the same time and switch back and forth between them.

Set whatever web page you want as your homepage.

When you install Firefox, you have the choice whether to make it your default browser. The default browser is the one called to open links you click in other programs and shortcuts on your desktop. Whether Firefox is your default browser or not, you can use Firefox whenever you like by starting from its program icon.

Some people have reported that their school software does not yet support Firefox 4. If you think that is true for your school software, you could install Firefox 3.6. That is available here: http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/all-older
