Same here. I use Windows more than I want to admit. But setting Mozilla
or Firefox as default means I never see IE unless I run it purposely
(for Windows Update, MS Knowledgebase, or the increasingly *very* rare
web page that won't work in Moz).
If IE is popping up on its own, 99% probability you have some
spyware/adware running.
