From WebCT Wiki

Simple and intuitive, yet fully featured, Firefox has all the functions you're used to like Bookmarks & History and proven to be more secure and work works best with WebCT.

Extra features include a Google Search^TM toolbar, Tabbed Browsing, Pop-Up Blocker and protection from ActiveX spyware.

Firefox is a free download and under 5MB available from spreadfirefox.com

[edit] Changes with WebCT CE 6 and WebCT Vista

Since Brock has upgraded to WebCT CE 6 has fallen out of favour because it is not 100% functional on the Mac (file uploads appear to work then fail at the last moment) and is not validated the the Browser Checker. This said, Firefox 1.5 and 2.0 do work 100% on WebCT CE 6.1.

[edit] Firefox 3 and OS X Leopard

The Java-based HTML Editor in WebCT will not load in Firefox under OS 10.5 Leopard. The Java-based HTML Editor will work with Safari.
