I downloaded the latest version last night and couldn't believe how much faster this thing is than IE. For surfing the web, you can't beat this mo'fo!

What's the difference in Firebird and Mozilla 4.1? When I was downloading Mozilla, I saw they had just launched Firebird but I couldnt' find where they talked about the difference in the two browsers?Originally posted by titmowse

I did notice that the Firebird wasn't as big of a file - which made me think it probably had less features???

DC, it's just a regular standalone browser, without email client, the mozilla chat program and the composer. Supports Tabs, the html interpreter is pretty quick in my opinion and is still as good with CSS as the full Mozilla.Comment

I love the tab features don't you? Actually, Firebird may have been the better choice for me as I use an internet based mail program instead of a local one. So, I probably don't need most of the features found on Mozilla except the browser itself. I may have to download Firebird and take it for a spinOriginally posted by Equinox

mozilla owns IE, aside from that fact it's a resource whore.

The Tab feature is certainly very useful. CTRL-click and I get all new windows lined up in the tab bar, instead of having the windows overflow my task bar, which usually already has 4 to 6 other applications showing.Originally posted by DeanCapture
I love the tab features don't you?
I also like how they implemented the popup stopper ~ you can easily add a site that you wish to accept popups from, and the rest is just blocked, and a little icon in the status bar indicates that.
I am also very pleased with the functionality of the spam filter in the full fletched Mozilla. It seems to learn and adjust according to the emails you flag as spam. After having used it for a few weeks, only roughly 5% of spam gets through, the rest automatically gets shoved to an extra folder. Very nice.Last edited by Guest; 08-13-2003, 12:53 PM.Comment

You talking about resource whores when dealing with P3 or 4 powered machines in multiple gigahertz ranges and (usually) minima of 256MB RAM? Please, resources really aren't such an issue anymore, IMHO.Comment

firebird uses a fraction of the resources it seems than ns or mozilla. very fast, renders html a little better than IE, and it's now supporting a few things that used to be IE-only, like transparency. and what's that? OH YEAH, IT PROPERLY RENDERS FUCKING PNG'S!!<a href="http://www.iroc409.com/"><img src="http://www.iroc409.com/adv/120x60.gif" border=0></a>

I was using Mozilla for years until a few months ago... tried the new Opera and had to switch.
They're both great browsers.Comment

here here! I just updated two days ago, actually. I gave Firebird a spin, but decided I liked the newsgroups too much. Mozilla is the shiznit, as they say.

i run a p4 2.66 with 512 megs DDR and if i keep one mozilla browser open for more then a few hours it starts to lag, just close down and restart it and it's usually fine.Originally posted by Equinox

Ok, decided to try going back to Mozilla after a couple of months with Opera...
I have a question.
In opera, if you click a link that goes to target="_blank", it opens a new tab rather than an entirely new window. Surely you can do that in Mozilla. It seems like I browsed that way in the old version. I'm so used to tabs, I can't get used to have multiple windows cluttering my taskbar now.
I went to the preferences, but there doesn't seem to be a way to change that. The only way to open a new tab is to do it manually.Comment

mozilla is ass.
there hasn't been a decent netscape release since 4.8
opera is overrated garbage.
if tabs and other silly things impress you, get Avant.Comment

How well does the wysiwyg html editor work in Mozilla? Is it similar to Netscape composer?Comment

Try using another shell, progman or blackbox for example, then comparing their memory footprints.Originally posted by XxXotic

Much of IE's core libs are integrated into explorer, making it seem like it loads faster and takes up less memory.David O.

I did. It's not there.
I guess I was wrong. If you click on a link with target="_blank" with pushing CTRL, it pops an entirely new window.
I'm sticking with Opera until that changes.
