Interesting.....

"reworking of the browser update feature."

So does that mean it will actually WORK???? I've never gotten FF to update through the update feature, usually it just hangs and goes nowhere.

Am I the only one that has a problem with FF STARTING sometimes? Double click FF to start, it opens, and does nothing. the ! symbol is right next to HELP, instead of in the right corner. Don't know what started this happening, and I have no extensions or heavy themes running. I use Pinball 0.9.9.3, but it does the same at home, and there I only have the default theme running..... Let's just hope this is all fixed in 1.5.

I've had the same problems with the update feature not working. Glad I'm not the only one!

It means you have a corrupt profile (probably due to a buggy extension, like Tabbrowser Extensions). Try uninstalled TBE to see if it fixes itself. If not, refer to »kb.mozilla.org/ to rebuild your profile without losing any of your bookmarks and other data!

There are many fans of FF, but regardless of it's popularity, there are still a number of holes that need filling. Until they are filled I am forced to consider FF a second rate browser. Just keep those updates coming.

Yeah, because we all know IE has holes
Or Opera, or [insert your favorite here]....

I find the Mozilla Suite to be far more stable than Firefox, to have more accessible features, including a friendlier and more familiar interface. I see no benefits in using Firefox except the improved handling of extensions.

Which holes are you referring. I am not saying that FF is perfect but i am curious to which ones you are referring.
