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
