You could run just FireFox ... but it would have a very hard time opening and closing popup windows with no WM.

I personally use icewm, and you could customize it to remove all the menus, etc. to avoid people fiddling. -- Carl Fink [EMAIL PROTECTED] Manager, Dueling Modems Computer Forum <http://dm.net> -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
