'kay... instead of a 10-page rant about Firefox 1.5.0.7 repeatedly crashing without any visible reason [on DIALUP ] I'll just ask you is there something wrong with the upgrade from v. 1.5.0.6 to 1.5.0.7? I have deinstalled the damn thing for 20th time and now I'm back on v. 1.0.7 :\ it works fine, and I've unchecked the 'Periodically check for FF updates' thing [makes me less edgy]. Also, I'd like to ask people how is Firefox 2.0 working out for ones who use it? Any problems, bugs, serious issues that would make me not want to download it once I've regained broadband? Duck is grateful for your patience. Thanks!

I dont know if FF2.0 is good or bad, but I can say that I havent heard anything bad about it.

2 is good. It doesn't look drastically different, but there's a few neat new touches here and there. Well worth downloading, even on dialup!

Make sure you use fasterfox plugin to set some parameters. For dial up users set your pipelining requests to 6, for broadband set it to 30. for all FF users set your memory cache (not file cache) to 2-4 mb (2048 - 4096).

Well, I'm using the FF 2.0 now and I can't complain. It's decent and the spelling tool really comes handy when someone's as awful with typing as I am ;D

I think it just shows the American Spelling's inherent superiority.
