I upgraded to version 2.0 last week and it's been crashing like Netscape 6.0 used to crash. Complete piece of crap. It makes Microsoft look very good and reliable.

I would suggest the real problem is in your hardware or setup skills.

Name some specifics instead or vague grumbling.

I have never had it or any earlier versions crash.

Version 1.5 had significant memory leaks. 1.5 would also "lose" bookmarks. I got rid of that and went back to 1.07. No problems with that build. 2.0 just crashes every so often. I have no idea what's causing it. Mostly when I go to specific news-oriented web sites. After FF crashes it'll allow me to bring up the previous session, tabbed browsers and everything, so that's an improvement over leaky 1.5 but my confidence isn't there. I try to use IE as little as possible. I've never used v7.0. Funny how some Firefox fanatics come off as the moveon.org types, all in your face about what MY problem is. It's irritating. You don't know my setup and I didn't code the dang browser.
