Fireflop has their own problems, especially with their rapid release insanity.

Like an add-on/extension? Don't get too used to it, as the developer might get tired of the frequent FF updates and quit updating the extension -- making it obsolete and incompatible with future FF releases.

I have FF 15. I quit upgrading when FF and Adobe Flash got where they would fight each other. I found a version of Flash that would work with FF15 and stopped upgrading both.

Now, FF 20 is out. With that release, a program that creates security tunnels between FF and specific websites (banks, etc) quit working with FF 15. If I want to upgrade FF15 to FF20, I lose several extensions that are no longer updated by their developers. Rock - hard place.

As much as I like FF, I am about ready to dump it. I may have to as FF15 will eventually become unusable on new media and secure websites. By then, FF 25 or FF 30 will probably out and will be incompatible with Windows 7 [/s].
