Brother won't let me use Firefox!

My brother won't let me use Firefox for some strange reason, he thinks it "slows down the net". Yet he is telling me to download IE7 Beta and use it..

I think it's because he said no the first time, and then he realised but didn't wan't to make himself look dumb.

His brother is trying to control what programs are on techo's computer, I presume.

Password protect you account and make yourself system admin. You could also add a BIOS password if you feel like that.

Then install Firefox or Opera.

Why don't you just use Internet Explorer 7 Beta 1? :P Its a reasonable idea.
