Have not tried recently, i admit, but the many times i tried (up to a few months ago and with 1.0.5 or 1.0.7) it crashed randomly while browsing, within a few hours of use, and this was enough for me to give up. Additionally, i could not find a way to make the flash plugin work, which is a major annoyance given the amount of flash content that one finds in the services i use daily (some work related too). firefox is not one of the most reliable applications around, but these days using a browser is a necessary evil for just too many things (including 'paperwork' that you have to do for your job, bank, bills and so on). It is already enough of a pain to do this as a non-Explorer user; i don't want also the impairment of a crippled firefox! cheers luigi _______________________________________________ freebsd-stable@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-stable To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
