Make the choice of Browser Optional or make it Firefox or Opera

Let us choose our default browser:

Or make Firefox or Opera the default browser, because they are better than Internet Explorer.

Please stop forcing us to use sub-standard software

I know this is a duplicate, but it is one of the most popular ideas and has been under review for such a long time that I wanted to put it up again.

I don't know about you, but waiting for an answer to this idea is getting annoying.

Though I love Firefox, I still keep IE around for just those occasions when Firefox wont display a page properly, wont open a script that is needed, or wont download a file correctly. A necessary evil, but I think it needs to stay around so long as the big M is exerting influence on the program and programming masses.

Same here - use IE when I connect to Microsoft. So yes, making Firefox the default browser would be nice, just don't get rid of IE completely just yet.
