My question is this... 
Are their GPO objects for firefox. I would love to deploy firefox, but being
able to control the configuration via Group Policy is a must.

I'd speculate for several reasons.  I've actually heard it said in my 
organization that people don't want to use Firefox, because certain 
sites don't display properly or at all with it.  Even after being told 
there is an extension to view a page in IE, they still use that argument...

Beautiful...how many more fun ones like these until people start to 
migrate away from IE.....


If the stuff in the past hasn't already urged them to migrate, why should
a small thing like being able to beat the popup blocker make them move?

I'd put a smiley on that, but it's a serious question - you need to
understand
why they haven't *already* moved before you can even think about getting
them
to migrate.
