Mozilla FireFox 1.0 is out at http://www.mozilla.org
and it fixes some of the issues I've had with the browser. Give it a try...

I upgraded to it earlier this week. Seems to be working great so far....

If anyone is still using Internet Explorer - do yourself a favor and switch to Mozilla.

Are there huge differences from the Preview version? I briefly went over an article on the release and didn't see anything big.

I just switched and it's definitely faster at rendering. Lightening quick.

As a Mac user I've been pretty happy with Safari as a net browser. I gave Firefox 1.0 a quick try, but found Safari to be faster. Am I missing something?

As a PC / XP user with a duplicated MAC interface.. I love Fiefox .... will never use IE again

I'll wait till its out a couple weeks before installing to see if any issues come up..

Thats for the tip

On my Mac, Linux box, and my (ack) windows computer firefox seems to take for damn ever to open the first time. Camino is lightning quick on startup, so I use that.

For serious browsing, MDaemon web mail features, and certain speciality pages, Safari won't load right since the pages were optimized for IE. Firefox allows an easy work-around.
