Downloaded this yesterday, and clicking back on the browser is super-dooper fast now. I really haven't tried any of the extensions.

I would definitely recommend the fasterfox extension its probably the best out of those above.

The add-on for FasterFox doesn't work for me. Any other way to get it?

I'm a IE fan myself. When I used Firefox it wouldn't work properly, only well known sites such as Google would actually be reckonised and work. If I was to have typed in http://www.360monster.com I bet it wouldn't work and I would get a "Sorry there is no such url" or something.

Hmm, I've had no such problems thusfar.

Even got my own amazing toolbar set up with the 17 links I'll ever want to use on it.

I meant one of the older versions of Firefox lol. I was on a Windows ME back then which was overall rubbish. Now that I am on a much better PC I might download this and give it a try, all the add ons for Firefox do sound cool.

For those of you who can't spot a difference between IE and FF, open your eyes, lol.

Firefox, is by far safer and faster.

The speed difference is very notable, yes.

Upon first using Firefox I couldn't believe how much faster it actually was.

I likes.

Ahh...so 1.5 is out of BETA? good! I've been using the 1.5 Beta for a while now and it's a whole lot better than previous versions...one thing I like is the fact that when you clikc on a link from an external place, such as thunderbird, it opens up a new tab rather than getting rid of the page you were previously on. I've been using Google Web Accelerator, is that anything like fasterfox? I've had it for about a week and so far have saved myself 2.3 hours of load time.

Good ol' Firefox, nothing beats that!

Every time I start it, it says something about "Safe Mode" and offers me to reset favourites, toolbar, history and stuff like that.

Anything I can do to stop this, as I think it's fine the way it is?

Firefox is the best browser out there, with it's simple yet effective design and many addons it's fantastic. I used to use Opera but this blows it out of the water.

Cheers for the links Dcontrol.

I would suggest the 'Sliver Skin' Theme. Looks VERY nice, fits in well with this site aswell
