  1. Review - Mozilla Firefox (v4) for Windows

    4.0 (Mar 21, 2011)

    Compensating for the last two negative ratings. If you want 64-bit get Minefield.

  2. Review - Mozilla Firefox (v4) for Windows

    4.0 Beta 4 (Aug 29, 2010)

    Hopefully, this isn't the beginning of another bloatware. The list of unnecessary or inferior new "features" is increasing.

    But the worst are the constant crashes. It may be the GPU acceleration which I enabled.

  3. Review - Mozilla Firefox (v4) for Windows

    4.0 Beta 3 Preview (Jul 23, 2010)

    Beta 2 isn't even out yet. Stop posting pre-releases! I'm running the first build of Beta 2 now. App tabs are here but they don't yet eliminate the navigation bar so they're of limited use. Would be nice if there was an option to always hide the nav bar when at a specified URL like mail.google.com. I don't really need the tabs to be open all the time. Also would be nice if when I type in the nav bar, bookmarks get prioritized. Would like to run bookmarklets from the nav bar too. In general, Mozilla needs to a lot of work with navigability.

  4. Review - Mozilla Firefox (v4) for Windows

    4.0 Beta 1 (Jul 15, 2010)

    Works perfectly for me. Disable add-on compatibility check and edited the userChrome.css to move the tabs to the title bar, giving me an extra line of web content. Still waiting on other promised features like app tabs and possibly a file browser.

  5. Review - Adobe Flash Player for Windows (IE)

    10.1.53.64 (Jun 10, 2010)

    FU Adobe for making me download your download manager just to download Flash! You can't simply uninstall it either. You have to manually delete np_gp.dll from Mozilla's plugins folder.

  6. Comment - Which Firefox is right for you -- 6, 7, 8 or 9?

    10.1.53.64 (Aug 19, 2011 - 1:04 PM)

    Beta is stable enough for most people. Aurora is good for beta testers. It's what I use. I wouldn't recommend nightly unless you want to contribute to the development.

  7. Comment - Which Firefox is right for you -- 6, 7, 8 or 9?

    10.1.53.64 (Aug 19, 2011 - 12:51 PM)

    x64 is only available as a nightly. Because it isn't officially supported, it can be even buggier than the x86 nightly. I wouldn't recommend it.

  8. Comment - Think eBay is the top retail or auction site? You'd be wrong

    10.1.53.64 (Aug 17, 2011 - 12:32 PM)

    Why would you have picked eBay over Amazon? I'm surprised that it's even close.

  9. Comment - Network admins stunned and reeling from repeated Firefox upgrades

    10.1.53.64 (Aug 15, 2011 - 11:01 AM)

    "It's all Google's fault."

    No it's not. Mozilla was the idiot for copying Google's versioning scheme.

  10. Comment - Google buys Motorola Mobility, Android's top supporter

    10.1.53.64 (Aug 15, 2011 - 10:58 AM)

    This brings some much needed attention to the sad state of patent law. You literally need to spend tens of billions just to avoid lawsuits.
