I'm in no position to knock anyone else's installation skills as I am one of the worst.

It took me two days and at least a half-dozen "do overs" to install my AT&T wireless network plugin and software. After doing it on one machine (you'd think I would have learned from that) it took two or three attempts to get it right on my other two computers after that.

I'm wondering what would make Bookmarks not work on yours though. Mine picked up the old bookmarks from 1.5 and I've added about a dozen or so since.

Maybe the "clock is ticking" on my installation and I am in for a big let-down in the near future.

What's nice is that the community of programmers that built, maintain and update Firefox are always making improvements and I'm sure they'll do the same for 2.0. I love the wealth of extensions that you can add to it. I keep expecting to see some kind of error message come up, informing me that I have installed too many extensions.

I love to customizability of FF and much prefer it to IE. That is why I was so disappointed in 2.0. Until that point, I have had absolutely zero problems with it. BTW, my post 35 has a link to the issue. Looks like it can be easily resolved.

RC3 did that sort of thing for me, but the official 2.0 didn't. The file itself was never deleted.

I'd tried RC3 for about 15 minutes and had to go back to 1.5.0.7, but then the update to 2.0 has been flawless.
