I am on Firefox right now. I just downloaded late last night (wee hours of today actually). I am still learning how to use it but I love the tabs.

Don't forget the "block popup windows" feature

I like its ability to allow pop-ups from one site and block others from another site.

One drawback: no google search toolbar for firefox. I love the google search toolbar.

Dad I have one question. I use FireFox 9.1 and love it. I have downloaded 1.0 but will I have to uninstall 9.1 to install 1.0. I ask because I have my bookmarks totally in place and would hate to have to start all over again.

I have a Google search toolbar in my Firefox. I copied a bookmark to my toolbar though & never think to use it.

I started with an earlier version and am now up to 0.9.2. Its is a great browser... but, when I print anything with multiple pages the page breaks are not recognized. It is a continuous printout. I have to switch back to IE for the page breaks to be recognized.

OK...have a question. Have had mozilla firebird for months, love it. Just downloaded firefox and my bookmarks were not carried over from firebird, and there seems to be NO way to import them. Any thoughts?
