Firefox question

In both IE9 and Chrome, when I create a new TAB, it shows most popular sites I have visited before for me to select from if I wish. Firefox gives me a completely blank TAB. I can't find anything in options to do this, is it not a standard feature ?

Cool, thanks !

It is amazing how much alike these 3 browsers are now.. Hard to tell unless you look closely which one you are using

I found Firefox sitting there using one entire core of my quad at times, which annoyed me. I tried IE and got the same, and eventually Chrome too. I think I narrowed it down to the met office site. So probably back to Firefox, but while I was using the other two I discovered this nice feature

FF4 is a big improvement over 3.6.

Chrome does not support the Citrix ICA Web client, so I can never use it exclusively, which is a pain. It also cannot save a web page as a text file. Ctrl-A, Ctrl-C and then opening notepad and Ctrl-v works, but very clunky

I've been using the Citrix ICA client with Chrome without issues.

Very odd, it is a known issue - google it. Could welll depend on what version I guess. The very latest web client doesn't work

It still does that but once saved I just open it from the download menu and it all works as normal.

That used to work with older versions of Chrome and the ICA client, but does not work with the latest versions of both (for me). Ludicrous that this doesn't work, these two companies should sort it out
