I've recently made the change from IE6 to FireFox and I have to say it's kicks a$$.
Has not made any improvements towards my DL/UPLoad though. Other than that my browsing speed RoCkS!! (Super fast) Anyone know of some great tweaks for it? I have FasterFox installed thats about it.
Thanks
Long Live FireFox

Faster fox is about the only thing that did any good for me when I used firefox. But now I'm a converted buddhist, I mean opera user.

Have you tryed out FireTune?
I really can't believe how much my browsing speed has increased. I have to say this is defiantly a must for dial up

I have the google toolbar installed on mine, but is there any way i can add a pop-up blocker. It seems as Firefox grows, so does the advertising and the pop ups.
