Hi! I am using Debian and i saw that there are two browsers available. The first is Epiphany whitch i do not use and the second is Iceweasel. I am bit confused cause i do not know if firefox4 is different of iceweasel or not. If they are the same why there are two names?

thank you...

Epiphany now uses WebKit as the rendering engine. See Help > About in Epiphany.
Iceweasel and Firefox use the Gecko rendering engine. I don't know if there is a recent Iceweasel version.
