Um, have you restarted Firefox?

I have, and it hasn't made any difference. I haven't restarted the computer, though.

All is well that ends in pizza.

You might even try upgrading to Firefox 1.5 RC3, maybe it'll fix it and give you a better version while you are doing it....

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

ION, any advantage to switching to Firefox from Mozilla?

Firefox is being developed more?

I've become a full Firefox convert, especially after loading up with some good extensions. I'm using ForecastFox, Adblock, PDF Download, Gmail Notifier, IE View, Tabbrowser Preferences, DictionarySearch, TabFX, Colorful Tabs, and Extended Statusbar.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

The fact that it's not a whole browser/mail/messaging/cabana boy suite makes it leaner and meaner and less glitch-prone.

I like Thunderbird too, especially the way mutliple E-mail accounts are handled in it.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Has Thunderbird improved its handling of how messages are kept or removed on the server? I like the way Eudora allows one to keep/remove messages individually. Last time I checked, Thunderbird couldn't do that.

I don't think it does, but I just always remove messages from the server so I don't know for sure.
