Hello there!

FireFox 2.0 on the Mac sucks

I’m seriously thinking about going back to Firefox 1.5 until Mozilla have got an update or two out of the door. I prefer FireFox to Safari, but the time is 12:15 and it has ‘unexpectedly quit’ FOUR TIMES already today.

[UPDATE] 1pm. Six times :(

    i know what you mean. my problems: firefox stops responding to clicks and has to be restarted. firefox windows snap to strange locations when i try to move them. i don’t want to go back to safari but this is a huge pain!!

    If your interest is in viewing web pages rather than building them, you could try Camino.

    It’s based on the same software as Firefox, so in essence it is Firefox, but it’s nicer and more Mac-like in appearance.

    It also seems to be much more stable.
