best feature so far is the built in automatic spell checker. works great on terb :)

I've downloaded Firefox 2.0 and I like it. Never used it before; but, on my computer anyway it seems much quicker than my explorer browser.

The only thing I can't figure out so far is how to line up my favourite bookmarks in a column along the left side.
Here is the download site in case anyone interested.

VIEW-SIDEBARS-BOOKMARKS (drag'n'drop) voila.
 
I like the spell checker they have added.

Anyone know if it is possible to add the dictionary of a second language?
 
I knew I shouldn't have installed 2.0.
Crashed 6 times within the first 15 minutes of use.
#$%#$%@%
Friend installed it and didn't have problems apparently.
So me going against my own rule (never install a first version or BETA ANYTHING) went ahead and did it. :roll:

LOL!!!

Give Opera a try.
Using Opera 9 now and most of them features your like on FF2 have been on Opera for over a year.....some longer......

.....and IMHO Opera is still the fastest browser of them all........;)
 
I don't find the humor in it Mr.WoodPeckr =P lol
Already have Opera, but I got so used to FireFox, it's hard to let go. :p

I doubled your foolishness. Installed both IE7 and FF 2.0. Now I'm making a renewed acquaintance with the good ol' Blue Screen of Death. Oh woe is me!!! :(

Ahh see, I posted about IE7 before on here, you should have done a search.
Na na :D
It SUCKS! Even by looking at it alone it looks horrible, that said, I still went ahead and installed it. lmao
Thankfully, I have a copy of FireFox 1.5.07 with all the extensions and themes I like (saved in a folder, for emergencies like this). =D

I discovered that IE7 and FF2.0 were not the cause of my Windows problem. Their installations were just contiguous in time with something else I did. With the correction of this other problem, both are now working fine.

I must say that I find the layout of IE7 to be rather weird. Overall, I much prefer FF.

I agree, ever since I tried it almost 5-6months ago, I thought to myself...WTF ARE YOU SMOKING??? making this new IE???
Horrible layout, too confusing considering it's predecessor.
Idiots, they tried too hard and fucked it up.
