      That never happened on my Linux boxes, though it happened a couple of times on the Windows machine at home. Fortunately I was using Bookmarks Synchronizer, so I just downloaded my bookmarks again.

      However it ate some of my other stored info too.

        Well, I'm giving it a try but has anyone noticed a real difference between Mozilla and Safari? In fact Safari's the only thing I actually like about Mac OS. Is Firefox more stable? Better somehow?

          Safari had problems with some PHP scriipts, that's why we used Camino (something like that) on the Mac to test our packages.

            I would use Camino. I've tried Safari, Camino, IE, and Firefox - on a PC, Firefox is a necessity. With a Mac, I would take Camino, with CamiOptions (change theme and other options). Now, maybe Asher will come along and list how Firefox is much much more advanced than it's cousin Camino, and maybe it is. All I know is, Camino feels just as fast as Firefox, and does a much better job at blocking web ads - with Firefox and Adblock, I would have to manually block images all the time. With Camino, you select the option to block ads, and they are simply gone. I used Firefox after Asher posted this thread, in preparation for updating, and was amazed at how many ads I had NOT been seeing, by using Camino.

            Maybe Camino will die a slow death with Firefox taking its talent and resources. But at least for now, I find Camino to be a great browser.

            Kudos to Mozilla

              Firefox 1.5

              Well, how is it?

              I upgraded yesterday, and I must admit it does feel quicker to some extent.

              Though it did have troubles with this one site that had a ton of animated gifs, and blinking text, and the scrolling and mouse movement was really f***ed up.

                Care to tell what the site was, or was it a "personal art" site ?

                With or without religion, you would have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion.

                  Link?

                  Is this the non-BETA 1.5?

                      Thanks, now my post looks idiotic.
