Firefox 1.0PR: a first look
Talkback I have been using Firefox since the early days when it was called Firebird. Regarding customization, I think the best feature of Firefox is the ability to customize the user files such as userchrome.css and user.js using the edit files extension.

Firefox phishing vulnerability discovered

Firefox phishing vulnerability discovered
Talkback It doesn't matter at all if only a couple of us use Firefox/Mozilla for a better browsing. But eventually they will have problems related to security/virus/spies/younameit with IE (and perhaps with Firefox too), so it's not a big deal.

Firefox marches on

Firefox 1.0PR: a first look
Talkback I've been using Firefox for a long time and wouldn't consider using IE. What amazes me is the occasional site that doesn't support Firefox, and actively locks it out. Of course since I use Linux, that isn't a likely choice anyway.
