Yep, firefox is a terribly written peice of crap. But good luck anyone being able to fix the horribly broken code it is based on (or caring that much -- mozilla developers seem to assume that everyone just loves upgrading every 6 months). I think I might have just migrated to opera. Not Free, but adequate. A browser doesn't /need/ to lose track of 500MB in several days operation to be any good. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
