I rarely have crashes with Firefox...even with 20+tabs open. I can't remember the last time it caused me any trouble. Meanwhile, I can't even get IE to open a link in a new window without locking it up.

I have no idea what Firefox you run or what you're running it on, but mine has been a phenomenal improvement over IE in speed and reliability, on every platform I've used it on (XP, 2000, and ME--yes, even ME!). I won't ever go back to IE as my primary browser, and now, I only use IE when I am forced to by websites that are too dumb to consider that 10% of the market and adapt their sites to it.

I am curious about your crashing situation, seriously. Is there something program wise or hardware wise you've been running on that would make your system more volatile, at least in regards to Firefox?

oh dont get me wrong, I like Firefox better then IE for functionality... the new IE with tabbed browsing is ok. FF on Windows is ok but i really dont think its as fast as IE, its nice and the features are great just dont think its as fast.
FF on linux crashes pretty frequently(the browser doesn't crash so much but when you open a new browser sometimes its funky) this has happened with a few different versions of linux.
