Freaky--FF on my windows computer is WAAAAAY faster than IE.

I am at a complete loss as to why the makers of FF would not want it to be even BETTER with Linux than it is with Windows, but hey, if you say so. The only time I've ever had problems with FF was using a Linux-based disk to surf from the CD drive instead of the hard drive, and that was I think primarily because of slow drive speed and low RAM, not FF or Linux. But I don't have Linux experience yet. I'll take your word for it that it's glitchy with Linux and MS on your 'puter.

FF, is better in windows than with linux IMHO.. its pretty much perfect in windows... every once in while in windows it will crash... hell i guess thats not bad for as much as i use it.. I dont really get that many *hard crashes* with FF in linux just strange behavior sometimes when FF starts in linux, like sometimes for some reason 2 firefox browsers will open instead of just one and the second one will just have an hour glass then it will just disappear after a minute or so... you know weird stuff like that... once FF in linux is up and running i rarely have a problem.. im using it right now on linux as a matter of fact. :D Mepis 6 RC2
