I'm not a Mozilla man, but I somehow got to shifting to Firefox essentially
due to two reasons
- Almost all websites show up exactly like they do in IE - I don't know how
they managed that - Mozilla was broken when I last checked
- Much faster rendering of pages, graphics and pictures - It show what it
has downloaded really fast and even in fractions - Useful for a slow
connection.

There's a problem with the tab bar in Firefox though - Once it gets
completely filled scrolling between tabs becomes a problem. It was good
enough to replace Crazy browser for me, and that's saying a lot.

Thusly, it was spoken by the voices from within Richard Urban's head on
7/8/2004 7:41 PM:

New version of Firefox (0.9.2) is now available for download!

I run a dual boot. Today I finally got around to installing 0.9.1 on my
WinME partition (it got installed into XP right away). It's very
irritating to have just finished upgrading you browser and your email
client only to find out that they've both been upgraded.

Since we're on the subject of Mozilla, may I also suggest the other
program: Mozilla Thunderbird. More powerful, and a lot more secure than
outlook express, and with built in spam filtering.

Have they fixed the bookmark sorting (a-z folders first)? does it work now?
I hate browsers that cant do basic things like that...

Hi,

It's actually a security fix edition and you don't need to download and
install the whole stuff again. Just visit this page :
http://www.mozilla.org/security/shell.html

I don't know if they fixed something else in 0.9.2, but it's basically
this update that matters.

No, they haven't added that feature yet. But I presume all these things
will be fixed by the time Firefox 1.0 is out.

Greetings --

There's a free Extension available at the Firefox site that does
that. It was the first extension I installed.

Bruce:

Why use Firefox? In terms of security, what does it do that you cannot do
with the MSIE settings?

TIA

Beats me! I tried it, didn't care for it. When I uninstalled it, it took
half my hard drive with it, Had to reinstall several large apps including
Office 2003.

what is the value of using Firefox:

Testy:

I am evaluating it, and I do not see the value, unless you belong to the
"anything but MS" crowd.
