is gay.
so ive been using it for 2 days now and along with its poorly done interface, ive noticed other thing that just suck. ...
for instance:
when inserting an image into a form and trying to wrap the [img] tags around it ... firefox is too stupid. ffs it puts the starting tag at the end of the highlighted url ... spank:
tabbed browsing is the coolest thing since toilet paper ? I dont see it ... i cant think of a single time ive need to have more than one page open at a time. nag: cntrl - n > tabbed browsing.
deleting bookmarks from the bm menu: you think someone might want to delete more than one entry? you can always just click manage bookmarks and remove from there ... yeah well i dont want to.
it doesnt recognize the mouse scroll wheel speed i have set for my mouse. so, instead of scrolling 3 lines at a time i get to wear my hand out scrolling only one line at a time.
in conclusion:
like netscape, this browser is going to fail if it doesnt keep up with the competition. if the firefox guys truly want to get people to use this raggedy p.o.s. they would make it more ie like.

I've been messing with it a lot lately too. Yesterday I was developing in Flash and had a Firefox window open for music on purevolume.com. Well if you're not familiar with purevolume, it uses a flash MP3 player. After about 10 minutes, the firefox window started doing weird stuff; the flash player kept appearing in the movie I was making in Flash. Really weird. Might be a flash problem vs. a firefox problem, but I never have those issues with IE. /nextbrowser

I like how i can click on the link with my middle mouse button (wheel) and it opens a new tabbed window. Awesome feature when you only want to use one hand while browsing new windows (pr0n).

I'm using it right now.
It has its limitations, but its really spy-ware safe...
...some web-sites with images, like GameSpot.com, seemed to flash around 10 times before keeping still.
I find it a helluva lot faster than IE, though.

i disagree ... the image load time is slower without a doubt ...
it could be the displaying while loading thing it uses where ie the image appears once its dled.

I use Opera and I love it, cause of the tabbed browsing sheet and IRC built right in.
