I just love FF! Ver 2.0 is great - though it could have "new tab" button right beside last opened tab - just like IE7, and MS's multiple tabs view is also grat - I miss that in FF. Yet FF has better "close tab" system - you can close the tab without activating it - like in IE7.
FasterFox was disabled at me automaticaly. Ditto for Google Web Accelerator, Tab Mix Plus and New.net Quick Search.

Firefox 2 Beta

Anyone else here who's using it? I love the new dictionary feature. It correct your spelling when every you are writing a blog entry, email or a post on a forum. It work just like the spelling correction in MS Word. So far I haven't had any problem at all with the Beta, it works just as good as Firefox 1.

Re: Firefox 2 Beta

im using it but Is it really a beta?

Anyway, the two last updates suck. I need to restart Firefox, it just "explode" when Im going to write something. It doesnt happen all the time but I havent had these problems before with firefox.

True.

The 2.0.0.0 version was the most stable Firefox ever.
While with the updates (2.0.0.1, 2, and latest 2.0.0.3) the browser has become much less stable.



Regression instead of progression!

I'm not having any problems with 2.0.0.3, on my computer it's as stable as ever.
