FoxE9 is an Internet Explorer 9 skin for Firefox. Default theme must be enabled for full functionality.

This is our first beta so feedback would be appreciated. Firefox 10+ supported.

Installed on Waterfox 9 seems to be working fine, thanks.

Nice

Shame the URL bar doesn't auto expand when you go to type in it/click it. Actually not sure if IE9 even does this, but it would be good lol.

I don't think IE9 does that either, but you can resize the urlbar by hovering between the urlbar and the tabs.

That's all I wanted

I'll stick to the last version of Stratiform that includes IE9esque, though. It lets me take the best of both worlds without enforcing either.

Can be we get notifications for pinned tabs??

That's awesome! Any chance you could include the option to change the colour of the back/forward buttons and also if to add the Firefox app button to the top of the window?

The buttons are images so we could give them a nice transition on hover, maybe in a future version we can include some options. You can remove our custom menu button (the cog) and it will return the Firefox menu to the top of the window, there are a few bugs though.

Excellent job. It's an almost perfect copy of the IE 9 UI; the only minor difference I can spot is are a few pixels toolbar height (see screenshot - FoxE9 on the left, IE 9 on the right). It's well enough done to trick Joe Users into running Firefox - install FoxE9, change the app icon, voila.

Isn't IE9 on the left and Firefox on the right? IE 9 is smaller for me

This theme makes me want to go back go Firefox full time <3

Very cool concept Can't decide between this and Stratiform.

ha ha grabbing this to troll people with..... great job!

Strange tab scroll arrows appearing and new tab tab being stuck next to the home button. New profile fixed! Not an addon issue, reinstalled all the same everything. Please scale the buttons to IE9, they are alot smaller and make clicking things like the bookmarks button difficult for us with poor eyesight.

Top image is Ff, bottom is IE9.
