Look under Tools-Options-Tabs and set it the way you want it to work !!!{DOU}.:\cHiCkEn/:. wrote:So, I gave up on FireFox with my old system. It was slow and sucked the life out of my Win2K with 933 proc and 512 memory.
However, with my new system with a rockin proc and huge mem, FireFox flies. And loads faster than IE.
Thing I don't like: to start a new tab in FireFox you have to select it under the file drop down menu, then after that you can double click above the webpage to create more tabs. The new IE has an extra tab ready to click on in the browser. Plus, IE has an "x" to cancel each tab as opposed to FF that has 1 "x" on the right hand end of the brower to click to close each tab. Unless I'm missing something, IE has a leg up on tabbed browsing.
Thoughts?
Mozilla FireFox 1.5

So far it's been great. Only thing I've noticed is some drop down menu's on certain websites don't work with Firefox, but work with IE. Also, some search features on certain websites don't work with Firefox, but work with IE. And you can't use Windows Update with Firefox. So you really have to have both unfortunately.
Other than that, been great so far.
