I've been using some version of Firefox since before it was Firefox (the old Firebird days). So far I like this new version. There's an extension you can get that opens IE within Firefox, if you have to view a page in IE.

I am not sure what you mean about the new bookmarks feature. I clicked on the star and nothing happened. When I right-clicked on it, I got elements that I could place on my toolbar. I don't really need those, so I didn't use any of them.

All in all, though, I like Firefox 3.

Like FF2, I tried FF3, and delete it...

IE stay THE browser...

Why charging the OS with alternatives things already on it ?

I prefer Firefox because of all the plugins and customisations

From a web developer/application designer's point of view, IE8 will be a pain. A List Apart and Microsoft has said if you don't want your pages locked in "legacy" mode (that is how it looks in IE7), you'll need to add a line in the <head> section or in the headers:

Code:

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />

Read more in this article.

Patricia, that star turns yellow when you bookmark a page. Click on it when it's yellow, and you can move the bookmark, and/or give it some tags.

huh?

Seriously, you lost me. I don't know what you mean by that. Unless you're referring back to the NS4/IE4 browser wars.

FF3 is miles better than IE7. The process (iexplore.exe) never finishes when I close it.

Nope, though I just got Crisis Core (FFVII prequel) last week as my birthday present to myself, and hooked on the game.
