Default Opera....

Is only smaller if you install it sans Java.

I get the feeling that 0.9 may still be little buggy. I have had some issues over the last few days since install, but not enough to drive me back to .8.

Still faster than anything else, completely free (with no annoying ad window, and thus no need to crack it), and a number of features that Opera is still having some issues supporting, ie popup browsing.

A fan of both, but Firefox may be the way and the path from now on.

...and the light. Don't forget the light.

One thing tho...in my CPanel, I have a page to set people's webmail up. On Firefox, I don't get one rather important link, whereas in IE *washes fingers with Dettol* I do.

Well guys there's one thing you don't realise by the way you post. FireFox IS Beta Software hence the bugs. Mozilla has stated in the past that only with 1.0 will FireFox be FINAL.

No, I'm absolutely aware of the fact that its Beta. Heck, two thirds of the software that I run is Beta . One of the little joys/frustration of being allergic to Microsoft.

When I noted that 0.9 is a little buggy, I meant in comparison to 0.8. Some new stuff has been flooding the bugzilla channels since release. Relatively minor tho, and even incomplete, it is still a better browser than the majority of others out there.

Hey kall...everyone else using FireFox...

Here's a nice little addon which will speed up your Mozilla based browsers. It works like a dream on FireFox too.

Be sure to check back to this site often as the creator of this addon updates frequently.

http://www.computerbase.de/downloads...lla_optimizer/

Have Fun!

Ok, quick question...what's the path to FireFox's bookmarks/favorites folder. I wanna add all my old favorites back into there without like adding them one by one...

Here's how to sort out your Bookmarks without using the Import Manager in FireFox.

Click on Bookmarks, then on Manage Bookmarks...

Have Fun
