**EviLGuY** · 09-25-2004, 03:10 AM

Thats what is great about Firefox.. they are ALWAYS improving it.

Check out the new pre-release 1.0 version. It's hot as hell.

**xclusive** · 09-25-2004, 03:16 AM

I've been using FireFox for a long time now and I have never has it crash or slowdown on me... So if you don't use it or at least give it a shot your a moron and the price is right..

You'll never look back!

IMO anyone in the Internet game should not be using IE

especially with all those fucking exploits out there

**TurboTrucker** · 09-25-2004, 03:22 AM

Went from Firefox to Opera, won't go back.

**chaze** · 09-25-2004, 03:24 AM

I swear I have tried them all before and could never settle. Firfox was always to bulky and took too long to start up. Hopefully they have lightened it up and allowed more customizing on the look.

opera - is the same too heavy.

mozilla - takes to long to start up and you cannot customize the look. I hate those flip thingers. Also it crashed the first day i got it.

Netscape - is basically mozilla.

IE has always been my choice maybe not for long.

hahaha yeah no love lost for Opera but anything Opera can do firefox can do better

With the right extension that is.

Its even got the Google bar with Pagerank ect......

**Tat2Jr** · 09-25-2004, 03:43 AM

Been using Firefox since 0.6. The new 1.0PR is awesome. I'll never, ever go back to IE. Nice thing about Firefox is if an exploit is found it's fixed within a day or so, where as Microsoft takes months sometimes.

Download Firefox Now!

**JayJay** · 09-25-2004, 04:59 AM

Right one thing I don't like....

Visited links don't change colour

You probably seen me waffle on about how fucking great Opera all the time but this is even Fucking hotter!!

faster,Half the size & all the pages that didn't work with opera now work

I was just testing it and opened like 80 new tab windows and the thing didn't even slow down, Imagine trying that in IE

also Some of these extensions are unbelievable

BTW if your still using IE as your main browser in this day and age you must be stupid

Opera uninstalled!

I can second that, but the tab option in firefox is not that comfortable than in opera...

**More Booze** · 09-25-2004, 05:29 AM

This version seem to be faster then 0.9.3.
Some new cool feature too BUT, they removed "Find in page" from the little search box in the right top. Not good.

Took me ages to see that too

Yeah gotta agree there but I fixed that problem by adding these two extensions

yes, saw that too.
I have to get use to press ctrl + f then.

Btw. there is a couple of sweet search plugins here: http://myhahahahaha.mozdev.org/index.html

I have installed IMDB and astalavista.
I think they might be handy.

I love that new search bar personally. Also I like how when you go to a https:// secure page the address bar goes yellow.

Just a really nice release all around and still not even a 1.0 final.

**EviLGuY** · 09-25-2004, 08:28 AM

Oh and it started integrating with Thunderbird too under the tools menu.. loving it.

**mammy** · 09-25-2004, 09:50 AM

**Argoz** · 09-25-2004, 09:56 AM

**xxxoutsourcing** · 09-25-2004, 11:06 AM

**PeekHoles** · 10-04-2004, 10:42 AM

Here is a nice google pr plugin for firefox. http://www.tapouillo.com/firefox_extension/

Works in the latest release of firefox with no problems that I have found. Now if I can find a plugin to make visited links change color.

**dready** · 10-04-2004, 10:53 AM

The new 1.0PR just totally rocks. Every little release it gets WAY better.

The new find in page feature is just what I've always wanted!

**SmokeyTheBear** · 10-04-2004, 11:04 AM

Wow i just loaded firefox. And suprise suprise, it still cant load or display most webpages properly..

When googlebrowser comes along we may see something worth switching.

Until then all your doing is ripping the motor out of your rolls royce and commenting on how quiet it runs..

how is it different from i.e's "find ( on this page ) " feature

**johnbosh** · 10-04-2004, 11:06 AM

cool:D

**dready** · 10-04-2004, 11:11 AM

It keeps a little toolbar on the bottom now.. highlights the word on the page, and stays open for multiple pages until you close the toolbar. Try it.. it's pretty cool.

**trafficguy** · 10-04-2004, 11:16 AM

Firefox rocks! I have been using it for a month now and its been great. Very smooth transition.
