Hope I don't get in trouble for this but...
If you use firefox and you don't have the new version,( Just came out June 17Th 2008), You need to get it. It really speeds up your internet browsing.

Firefox V3 was realesed in the 17th.
Taken from their website:
Major performance enhancements and revolutionary “Awesome Bar” make Firefox 3 the fastest, smartest, most powerful browser Mozilla has ever released
MOUNTAIN VIEW, CALIF. - June 17, 2008 - Mozilla today released Firefox® 3, a major update to its popular and acclaimed free, open source Web browser. Firefox 3 is the culmination of three years of efforts from thousands of developers, security experts, localization and support communities, and testers from around the globe.
Available today in approximately 50 languages, Firefox 3 is two to three times faster than its predecessor and offers more than 15,000 improvements, including the revolutionary smart location bar, malware protection, and extensive under the hood work to improve the speed and performance of the browser.
“We’re really proud of Firefox 3 and it just shows what a committed, energized global community can do when they work together,” said John Lilly, CEO of Mozilla.

Yes it was cool watching them set the world record. Over 8 million downloads in a day. I even printed up a certificate that says that I helped set the world record on the 17th!
FF3 is so AWESOME it's hard to describe. I got the glass and hide menu bar extensions so now it looks beautiful on vista!

Clegs, what extensions are you talking about? Glasser? I couldn't find a 'hide menu bar' extension at all.

If you want to have the "glass" look, there is a good post describing how to do it. http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?showtopic=632112Hopefully this answers your questions. It makes firefox look really nice. |

I now have an "error 623" that comes up every now and then. I found how to stop it through a search but for the life of me the directions arent clear. I might have to search again.
your friend,
