Just installed it tonight and it seems to be conflicting with CCA a bit. The read messages don't seem to be getting flagged as read, even after updating the messages.

"**** site" you say? What sort of a site is this? I don't think I've ever heard of it.

Errrr...heh....yeah, that's better. Thanks man. [img]redface.gif[/img]

Now if it were more like Microsoft...it would've taken me by the hand and restarted FOR me. Sometimes you don't even realize when it's happening to you. Kinda brings to mind the 'ol Jello Biafra/ Ice-T collaboration..."Shut-up, Be Happy"

I use firefox but I use IE more. I don't really like firefox all that much because I open stuff in new windows alot and there is a 50% change if it is going to load or not so sometimes I have to reopen a link in a new window several times to get it to show.

On forums they set the cache way too high so it's not up to date like on here and Sounddomain. so you have to change the cache from 50000 to 50 KB in options.

I really don't notice any differance except when visiting **** sites I don't get as many pop ups and I don't get it asking me to install stuff to continue.

I've been contemplating changing to Firefox, I'm sure like everything else it'll be a learning experience for me, especially having to switch to Manual mode instead of the auto-install feature that IEx. gives. But if it saves some RAM, I'll give the can a kick.
