Here are the options it gives me

Accessibility

[]Always use the cursor keys to navigate within pages
[]Search for text when I start typing
[]Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload a page

Browsing

[]Use auto scrolling
[]Use smooth scrolling
[/]Check my spelling as I type

System Defaults

[]Always check to see if Firefox is the default browser (check now button)
[/]Submit crash reports

[] represents check boxes and [/] represents check checkmark boxes
