Anyone using firefox2

sober · 10-24-2006, 06:46 PM

I just installed firefox 2 and it seems heaps faster than internet exploder 7.

JSLTIGER · 10-24-2006, 06:51 PM

Agreed. I like it so far. Although IE7 is not nearly as bad as IE6.

Syxx_Killer · 10-24-2006, 07:26 PM

I've been using Firefox for quite a while, so when 2.0 came out I had to have it!

I'm loving it so far. It does seem a little faster and I do like the new look. I have downloaded some wickedcool extensions. I don't know if they were available for 1.5.0.7 or not, though. IE7? What's that?

Is 2.0 still freeware? Or commercial sh**.

Syxx_Killer · 10-24-2006, 07:49 PM

Firefox is still free. Always has been.

I just downloaded FireFox 2 and it seems great, it looks like it runs a lot faster than 1.5 and IE6.

Also just got a great theme, Noia 2.0 (eXtreme) it looks good, and it has an awesome name!

eXtreme!

JSLTIGER · 10-25-2006, 08:01 PM

I used to like Noia, but I find it to be a bit childish...

Bort · 10-25-2006, 08:44 PM

Hey...

It's cool, and there isn't much else out that I like for FireFox 2.

JSLTIGER · 10-25-2006, 09:56 PM

The Azerty I and III series aren't bad, neither is Mostly Crystal.

Syxx_Killer · 10-25-2006, 10:11 PM

For the most part I mainly stick with the stock theme. At one time I had a LOT of themes. Right now the only other theme I am interested in is the Fusion Alternative one. It is a port from Netscape 8.0. I also liked Modern Modoki (another NS8 port), but that hasn't been updated for FF 2.0 yet.

Orbit was another theme I liked. I also tried the color Shift series of skins, but all that black was hard on my eyes.

I've been using Firefox for more than 1 year, but lately I switched to Opera and there is no going back.
Opera is the "perfect" browser, feature packed and boy do I love the mouse gestures.

The problem with Opera is that certain sites don't display correctly. I find that while it occasionally pops up with FF, it occurs much more frequently on Opera.
