    For the few instances a month where I encounter a website that will load best with Firefox. Does the trick, but obviously due to it's nature I stick with Camino or Safari for most of my browsing.

      How come Asher didn't start this thread?

          I've downloaded and installed FF2 rc1 and I'm very impressed. Start-up times seem to have decreased and it "feels" faster. I'm not sure about the new icons and I certainly wouldn't want them to add any more default features, but overall I'm quite happy .

          The best way for them to go IMHO though would be for the default installation to be as barebones as they can, kind of like K-Meleon, but with extensions bundled with the installation package that give you the option of adding all the functionality of RC1.

            Masturbating you mean?

            No shame in that you know. Ask JM.

                Installed it an hour or so ago. The only think I noticed so far is the spell checker thingie and I like it very much.

                The bad thing I noticed is that I no longer can download lots of stuff at once. Usually I could start downloading many files from the same site and they would just download slowly. Now, it starts downloading only two files and waits with the rest.

                  Is that because your fasterfox extension got disabled due to version requirements?

                    Yep, fasterfox. Oh, well. I'll wait.

                      google the "nightly tester tools" extension. You can force 99% of extensions to work, and they will work fine.

                        Ok, I'll try it.

                        DisableBackSpaceNavigation also stopped working. That's the most annoying one so far.

                          Popover blocking.
                          I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                            It works. Thanks Asher.
