Love Internet Explorer’s interface but love Firefox as well? Or don’t know how to use Firefox but just know how to use IE?

Instead of using a plug-in that will mess up your configuration, you can download this Firefox theme, and it’ll make your browser look like Internet Explorer, in every minimal detail.
Everything you can see, including icons, tabs, and buttons will look like if you were using IE, but behind you are still navigating with your beloved Firefox.
The theme is free to download, and you can do so from here: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/4988
From what I saw, the theme is practically identical to IE’s interface, but if you find something that you want changed, you can use this free extension to change the Vista Aero theme settings: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/5992.

Is there anyway to get the photo done by Nicolo’ Canali De Rossi (of Firefox And Internet Explorer 7) as an Icon? If so please, do share.
Hey Hylian,
Just save it and covert it in .ico format using any service. It should work.
Any doubt contact me

hi,
I created a userstyle which adds the Aero effect to the tabs too.
It can be found here if you are interested:

Nice ie7 look theme. Is it possible to make the “side view” where the bookmarks and history buttons are to expand and minimize like the MS IE7 instead of completely close? Thank you
