It is much easier to use and has more features that are really useful and fun. Thank you open source technology and Mozilla.

4. I downloaded it today also.
I think I'm going to like it. I got really sick of pop ups. Also, it will be interesting to be a part of a test group.

12. Mozilla Firefox Takes Last Step to Full Release
http://www.eweek.com/article2/0,1759,1611189,00.asp

-Snip-

The Mozilla Foundation on Monday is planning to bring its standalone Firefox browser one step closer to its full release.

The open-source project is set to make available Firefox 0.9, the browser's last technology preview release focusing on new features. After its release, developers plan to fix bugs and make final tweaks in order to launch a full version of Firefox in late summer, lead engineer Ben Gooder told eWEEK.com.

Firefox 0.9, which will be available for download from the Mozilla Web site, adds features for importing data such as saved passwords from Microsoft Internet Explorer (IE) and for managing extensions and design themes.

It also sports a new look, with redesigned icons and new colors, Gooder said.

7. Maybe I should try, I'm having a problem...
When I right click an image online, IE will only save it in bmp.
Driving me nuts!

9. I use Opera which is great too
When at work (IE5) I'm constantly typing Z to go back, and get irritated when nothing happens!! IE sucks. Opera is great.
