I had been using the basic Mozilla 1.7 but now use Firefox as my default browswer on home computer. It is great and at times moves quickly. Internet explorer does work better with sp2 on this computer but I will stick with Firefox

Several of the the extensions are not compatible with the current version.
I lost about 5 sets when I upgraded. I figure the creators will issue updates of the extensions soon.

Nice hobby browser. IE is still the best enterprise level browser for the masses.

I have FF1.0 but dont use it like i should as its not compatible with my windowblinds skinning program .I really like color and themes on my machine and the theme extensions firefox offers are kinda blech to me.I do agree that browsing is faster with FF and I love tabbed browsing.

I've been using it for the last month, and I'm VERY pleased with it. It's the best browser I've ever used, if not one of the best over all applications!
