It turns out digital
is better than analog. It's a shame that Russ and I had to kill each to find out.
mb, writing from heaven.

If y'all go click on the themes button in the tools menu, then y'all can enjoy the same pimpin' ass browser as yours truly.
Pimp
If you open more than one tab, the little window thingy is leopard print!!!

I downloaded it, and I'm trying it now. So far, I can't see any advantages over Opera. Has anyone here used both? Can you tell me why I should switch to Firefox from Opera?
Anyway, my vote is Not Crap... even if it isn't as good as Opera.

Been using firefox for about 3 months. It seems faster. I like the thunderbird mail more then outlook express. Not Crap.

I use Opera at home and Firefox at work; Opera is far better in terms of stability. Firefox is free and certainly not crap, but Opera is mature and stable.
Absolutely NOT worth switching from Opera to Firefox.

I've recently been using the Firefox 1.5 Beta on OS X. I've noticed some speed increases.
My favorite extension, by far, is
Mile Wide Back.
It makes the entire left side of the screen work as the back button in the browser.
The one thing that still sucks for firefox on os x is that scrolling with the mouse scroller is super-slow and I can't seem to find a fix for it.

That wouldnt install for me. Is it only for macs?
I have a wooden theme on my mozilla. Reminds me of simpler times, when browsers were made of real pine and you could leave your door unlocked.

I don't think it's only for macs. It may be. Are you sure you allowed it to install. By default firefox is careful about installing software, you have to give it permission. Have you installed other extentions before? Are you sure you're trying to install the correct version? Did you restart your browser after installing?

It tried to install it but then it said "install script not found".
