FireFox4 beta 2

Computer Help and Discussions Software

Anyone else trying the beta of firefox 4? I beta'd firefox 3 way back when :lol: I actually like it so far, it seems fast enough, and its pretty clean (although it looks like Mozilla is taking hints from Apple design in some places..)

At any rate anyone else using it; thoughts? comments? The only thing irking me is the switching of the tab and address bar positions.

Firefox strives to be the fully featured web browser but now they've removed Gopher support from their latest builds.

Granted not many people use or have heard of Gopher but it's certainly not dead and should never had been removed IMO.

Thanks for the plugin info I'll have to have a look at it sometime. :)

I don't think I have used Gopher since the early '90s - anyone still using that...?

Can't say I have tried it. Firefox just doesn't appeal to me anymore. I'm more interested in IE9.

Uh...When I installed it, Explorer started acting wierd, throwing RPC errors everywhere, drag'n'drop didn't work at all (in any program), and other weird things...This was fixed after a reboot, but I hope Mozilla will fix that :blink:
