    You can download it directly here (Windows users):

    Download the fastest Firefox ever
    http://www.mozilla.com/products/download.html?product=firefox-2.0&os=win&lang=en-US
    Faster page loading, less memory usage and packed with features, the new Firefox is here.


    I would highly recommend checking the plugin list before upgrading. Some plugins are not compatible, and it would stink if you lost functionality that is important to you with the upgrade. You can check the plugins here:

    Add-ons for Firefox (en-US)
    https://addons.mozilla.org/
    Download Firefox extensions and themes. They’re like apps for your browser. They can block annoying ads, protect passwords, change browser appearance, and more.

      yea, but it's got spell check built in...

      in fact, I'm using it now!

      it underlines the word in red, then right click on it, a list will appear with the correct words, if it is correct then you can add it to the list.

                  Cool. I still use Safari as my main browser, but once or twice I'll hit a site Safari won't work with and its nice to have a backup.

                  Sadly....hubby is still stuck in the world of IE....

                      Sometimes it works for me, other times it doesn't... I think it all depends on the site.

                              That is really odd that it was not enabled by default. Oh well. Glad it is working for you now!

                                question: It used to be I could click alt-S and I could post a quick reply on MiceChat. But now when I click alt S it opens the history tab. Is there anyway to change it back to the way it was?

                                  I did not know that shortcut, I don't know if the code is hardwired into the softwear, or has the ability to be easily changed.

                                    I'll take a look at it. Most of the key-shortcuts can be changed, but I do not think the 7 menu shortcuts can.

                                      I'm an Opera user, but like penguinsoda, sometimes I run into sites that just don't want to work right, so Firfox is there to save the day.

                                        I initially switched to Firefox because opera was ad-based at the time... lol

                                        (my web design teacher didn't like the idea because she did not use fireFox yet, I passed the course with using firefox for most of my checks on validating and everything...) i hope IE fixed some of it's bugs on displaying something incorrect while opera and firefox displayed it correct.
