Firefox Warning

I used FF for a year or so then tried Opera for while. I've been using flock for the last few months and it works best for me. If you don't want to use FF for any reason, for the love of all things holy, DON'T go back to crappy IE. Once you've used tabbed browsing, IE is like trying to surf with your hands tied behind your back even if IE 7 does have the tabbed option. Try Opera or Flock first before you go back down that road again!

Its pretty much down to personal preference. I've used firefox and the latest IE7 and in my opinion IE7 is far superior. I've yet to discover anything wrong with it, not the mention the fact that its initial load time is about 4 times faster than the load time of FF.

That's a feature.

Pressing / brings up the "Find as you Type" bar, and pressing ' allows you to bring up the same bar but only search links. I find the "Find as you Type" a thoroughly useful feature, and I've yet to meet anyone who has a tendency to whack the forward slash or apostrophe keys whilst browsing web pages. This feature is automatically disabled whilst typing in text fields, so I don't see a problem.

As for the copy and paste issue, I've yet to encounter that...
Lucky you!

I can be just replying to a post as I am now and suddenly and randomly the ' key brings up that bar at the bottom. Only way to get rid is to restart firefox :(

Can be extremely frustrating sometimes, especially if it's a lengthy reply. Once I did a big reply in the sports section with a diet and exercise plan when the ' bug started. So I thought I'd just copy, restart firefox and then paste into the new window... only it didn't copy :rolleyes: a double bug whammy! felt like throwing the keyboard through the window :D
