Firefox! Firefox! FIREFOX!
I guess you can figure out from my reply that I use Firefox, lol. Version 1.0.7. Been faithful to the browser since version 0.8.
I've seen quite a few people complain that "Firefox doesn't have this..." or "Firefox doesn't have that..." and MOST of the features these people complain about Firefox not having it DOES have via extensions. I can't help but wonder if they ever even bothered to take a look at the extensions pages before deciding the program didn't have what they wanted and uninstalling it.
The first time I tried Firefox, I didn't like it either. Can't remember what version it was at but it was back when it was called Firebird or something like that. I tried it for maybe 15 minutes and then uninstalled it and went back to my original browser which surprisingly, lol, was Mozilla. At the time I actually thought Firefox was too simplistic and not customizable enough *for you must admit, the little browser DOES look pretty simplistic at first glance*. But after hearing one of my friends rant and rave about it so much and pushing me to give it a REAL chance, I reinstalled it and swore to myself that I would stick to it for at least a week and fully explore everything it had to offer. I got hooked, and have been hooked ever since. It has been the one piece of software that has managed to be consistant on my computer *other than my OS, of course ;)*.
For those that complain that Firefox isn't offering them what they want, give it a fair chance. Check out all it has to offer before you say it doesn't offer what you want. It's extemely flexible, and since it is extremely flexible, it's also very vast in it's options and is nowhere near as easily dismissable as many other browsers out there are. Remember that Firefox is one of the reasons Microsoft ditched their Longhorn project and started all over in the form of Vista...
