Yeah, 1.5 has been out for a while. One thing that bugs me about Firefox: it ignores WindowState of your default email client. It heeds WindowSize, but wont open it maximized if you last closed it maximized. I know I'm nitpicking a minor thing, but they still haven't fixed it. If I were still reviewing sofware for Ziff-Davis, I would have bullied them into fixing it by now by mentioning it in a review.

I like because it's not MS. I have had very good luck with FF and the ability to give it a personel look! I also use the Thunderbird mail program which I find very user friendly. Was told not as prone to the hackers as IE.

Anybody have Firefox "hang" ?
This one is doing it on a routine basis now. Probably several times per day. When it happens, a reload won't work. Seems to need six or seven attempts. Sometimes I need to go to an alternate site and return to the site where it originally hung. Any ideas? |

.......the usual XP problems that develop over time are the culprit?? I was really hoping to avoid this huge undertaking. |

For some time now I have been using Mozilla Firefox (now at v. 1.5.0.1) and have had a rare hang but nothing like what I used to encounter with MS IE. There are a few features I would like to gain but overall I am having good luck with it. Price was certainly right.

The fresh install is probably the best. I've just not got myself steeled to do it. Do you know of a step by step procedure for this? I sure don't want to screw it up. |

Tell you what -- you want to see slow -- try IE7.
