Firefox is a free, open-source and cross-platform web browser for Windows, Linux, MacOS X and other operating systems. It is small, fast and easy to use, and offers many advantages over other web browsers, such as the tabbed browsing and the ability to block pop-up windows.

Plus all the themes I already had are no longer there. And having a hard time installing the ones that it does recognize.

Install by drag and drop into the new theme manager window. If there is a theme you want, whether it's one of mine or not - I can make work for you.

Seems a little "buggy" so far. Certain themes simply do not load and others say that they are but don't show up in the Themes window. Also mine seems slower opening pages than it had been with version 8.

The speed seems faster than 0.8 for me. It also does a better job of importing Favorites and Cookies from IE.

I was looking for some of those extensions that LK was running but didn't find most on the "Official FF" site. But...Thanks to a link provided by lil Miss Sarah Lane, Here is another great FF resource: http://texturizer.net/firefox/extensions/

Seems to be alot of great stuff there.
