I understand the joy of escaping from MS products.
From my first 98lite installation w/out Internet Explorer I've been hooked on alt. browsers.
However, after a few hours of FireFox browsing, I can honestly say that the the newest MyIE2 browser is much better (for me, anyway).
Without having to install "extensions" I can move the tabs to the top or bottom of the window. In fact, the ability to move just about anything anywhere you want is a real selling feature for me.
Pop up blockers work about the same in both.
Opera has issures with some websites, and FireFox still has a few as well. I think MyIE2 is a more mature product and it wins this round of the browser wars (for me). The skins available for MyIE2 are also bonus.
One issue I failed to test in FoxFire before uninstalling was assigning an Alias to a website. To check Yahoo mail, I type ?YM? To visit the hot deals forum, I type HD.
I find this faster than clicking through bookmarks. Is this available in Foxfire?
Also, when I have 7 or 8 tabs open (don?t ask) I sometimes rename the tabs for easier navigation. Does FoxFire allow the user to do this as well?
