== Firefox & Printing ==

For this exercise I attempted to print CNN.com's main page. Since I didn't want to actually print the document on paper I printed the webpage to a MS Office XPS document.

== Firefox & Saving files ==

The same file "mirc.exe622.exe" was saved to the following two directories

:*C:\Windows\System32\drivers\etc

:*C:\Users\Administrator\AppData\Local\Microsoft\Credentials

With an Administrator account no problems were encountered while saving this file to the two directories.

Things changed when I used a Standard user account:
