  1. Review - Mozilla Firefox (v2) for Windows

    1.5.0.1 RC1 (Jan 15, 2006)

    I reinstalled 1.5 because not all my extensions were compatible with this version.

    Tried Opera last week. Nowhere near versatile enough for me. I like the extensions, don't need someone else deciding my bells and whistles for me. Fx wins out every time I try something else. I guess if I needed my hand held....

  2. Review - Mozilla Sunbird for Windows

    0.3 Alpha 1 (Nov 5, 2005)

    I'm a rabid Fx user, and have tried most of the MozDev add-ons. I agree with the reviewers who commented on the unfinished look and feel, as well as the weak notification. Still a work in progress.

    I'm currently using Planzo, from planzo.com, an online calendar application that's not too bad. Also use Rainlendar, but don't care for the need to customize it to get rid of the "cutes." Will probably drop it for that reason.

    Amen on the attachments. Who needs 'em?

    They'll end up ruing the day they started that stuff. Good thing Google brought it all out into the open. MSN, Yahoo and AOL just folded and kept their mouths shut. Best guess is, since they're ISP's, the FCC was held over their heads.

    This will cost the administration bigtime in the long run. You read it here first.

    Got all your security patched up to date?

    It's eventually deleted, but not necessarily right away...same as every other web mail system.

    Learn to use the search function well, and you'll never worry about it again. I don't even use labels. I can find one word or phrase out of the eighteen thousand emails I have in the archives. Who bothers with files? As someone said, very 2002.
