is there anything that annoys u in Mozilla/Firefox/Netscape?

[SubZeroX]

the one thing that I really don't like is that when pages don't load, the browser just quits and does nothing. It don't even notify u that the page couldn't be found or whatever, it just stops. So often I think the page is loading in a new tab but often I find a blank page when I go look at it. Argghh!

Um, middle clicking opens bookmarks in a new tab on top instead of in the background, while middle clicking links opens them in the background like it should. I can prolly change it, but am too lazy to look

The download loader sucks. I want an option to run .exe with out saving them to disk manually like ie has. And when I use the download manger to launch a program it always ask me if I'm sure I want to launch the program if I click don't ask again check box.

 

[CraigRT]

the only thing that annoys me about mozilla is that it reminds me of netscape, which i hate.

spencer278 i agree with as well....

The fact that you have to download all the goodies that I take for granted in Opera. There are a lot of good ones, and I suppose it's nice having a tiny install for computers that are restricted on space, but I'd like to have an "option package" of commonly used plugins available for download... either that or just make a "full" and "lite" version.

Let's see...
It's TOO FSCKING SLOW!!!
You can't edit your bookmarks from the bookmark menu (like you can in IE)
The scroll wheel doesn't work right
IT'S TOO FSCKING SLOW!!!

 

[dighn]

the image placeholder icon reminds me of of netscrap

 

[AkumaX]

its still not 100% perfect w/ macromedia stuff (i have to use iexplore for shockwave)

 

[CaseTragedy]

just 1 gripe: page loads are significantly slower.


-Case

 

[DurocShark]

The fact that <a name=> tags are displayed as if they were hyperlinks... Mouseover color changing and all. :|

yes you're right, it does seems a bit slower than IE.

This is it. That and the fact that some asinine site developers won't let sites load on it cause it isn't IE.

IE just saves it to a cache that you clear out. =/

 

[Schadenfroh]

it does not have as good privacy customatizations as IE
it takes longer to start
i dislike the layout
i dont use half of its features
it does not work with my VM
its not integrated into windows, so i cant switch between stuff as easily

 

[sandorski]

My only complaint with Mozilla is that some Themes don't seem to work.

I wonder why it isn't integrated into MS Windows like MS IE is...

 

[MaxDSP]

Initially loads up wayyyyyyy too slow, compared to IE. Also, after a while of using it, it becomes slower and slower at switching and refreshing individual tabs. Kinda sucks, but besides that it's still a great browser. I'm also dissapointed at the fact that my customizations/plugins/etc didn't carry over to FireFox (whatever the reason may be)

 

[ElFenix]

do what? what do you mean you can't switch between stuff as easy?



the only thing i don't like about it is that a lot of features on lexis nexis don't seem to work with it.

 

[DeRusto]

the way the auto-complete feature of the address bar works is retarded. it includes many addresses that i never would have typed and dont want to go to anyway... like forums.dioramastudios.com/post.php when i just want to go to forums.dioramastudios.com

 

[Allio]

Three things.

1) After not touching the browser window for a few hours, it seems to dump everything onto disk and out of memory, and then takes a minute of caching before you can use it again.
2) They still haven't fixed the occasional bug where you'll load a link in the background, but the tab is blank instead of loading the link you clicked on.
3) They need to get rid of the whole 'make a new profile when you install a new version' thing. It completely defeats the purpose of having profiles

That said, I wouldn't go back to IE for anything

That is what programs are for to do stuff for me. With ie the file will get deleted out of the cache at some point but with mozilla the file just sits on my desktop for every. I like IE solution better.

 

[Lifer]

yeah, the mouse scroll doesn't work too well in firefox.

 

[Sid59]

ever read those comments on download.com about products. they have usually have absurd comments like, "i installed it and couldn't uninstall it. i had to reformat my computer!." or .. "i couldn't install it. so i ran my antivirus and i had 3 viruses!"

this reminds me of those comments.

 

[SubZeroX]

Sid59, so you think all of our complaints are stupid. Then you must be 100% satisfied with Mozilla. If so, you should not have read or posted in this thread.

I'm annoyed that when someone links to another site in this forum, I have to click twice.
