I was anticipating upgrading to Firefox Version 2.0 as there have been some good reviews out there. However, my version 1.5.0.7 does not show that an update is available. I did some checking on the Mozilla site and the update is out there. However, users are having a host of problems with the installation, lost bookmarks, freezes, slow operation, etc. I suggest that anyone who has not upgraded, wait a while or at least be aware that if you install it you may have problems like those shown at the Mozilla location.
ping for later
I just installed it.
I was using Netscape before, but this new version has some neat features. I still like the Netscape GUI better, but Firefox's inline spell checking might just be the deal breaker. Maybe I'll go see if there's a new version of Netscape out yet that can do it. If not, I might be using Firefox for a while.
LOVE the spell check. I may never go back to IE. I'm just about willing to live with some of the display issues that exist with a few web sites. Aside from the problems with the extensions, it's great!
