I just downloaded the latest browser from Mozilla - Firefox.

www.spreadfirefox.com

It's bloody brilliant! Got their mail client (Thunderbird) as well.

Was designed by the bloke who started Netscape. the tabbed
web browsing is a great carry over feature from Netscape. It's
only a 4.5Mb download - unlike IE - 20Mb! Seems to run
fairly light too.

Anyone using this yet? opinions?

Yeah Im using it. Actually it seems fairly similar to IE except for
the tabs you point out which was hyped in PC magazine too.
The mainthing is I had a lot of problems with IE and when you add on
all the pop up blockers and other things with IE at least in my case
(I havent explored all the options so maybe you can change settings to
make them about the same in protection and glitches ) it makes IE
vastly slower. IE seems to be constantly pausing to block things and
do whatever its doing.

With Firefox ---- Im taking the hype on its face value , supposedly
its safer and it doesnt have all those weird pauses.
