Can't stand having 50 windows open at once or fighting the back button while getting lost 30 pages deep into a site because it doesn't have tabs? Don't use windowblinds but hate the ugly outdated primitive IE browser? Enjoy updates sooner than every 5 years?

Simple solution, use firefox/opera/camino/safari/maxthon.

Wasn't IE7 supposed to be out in may anyway?

This looks like a good place to toss this comment on. Twice in the past 4 to 6 weeks..not sure of exact time frame. I have opened up Firefox which is my default browser and found all my tabs and bookmarks wiped out. Gone without reason. I rely on my saved " things " to get around. This is annoying and also baffling as there seems to be no cause before hand. Only thing I noticed was it only happens after a Total reboot ..shutting completely down. I tend to only shut off internet and only restart windows . My question is..has this happened to others ? Is there a way to prevent this ? Or just a bug with Firefox?

That has never happened here, but I have an extension called SessionSaver which you can get here:

Maybe it can help you.

Never ever happened here since I started using Firefox. Did you recently install a new extension? Or did you recently install a newer version of Firefox whithout checking whether your extensions are still compatible with it?

Simple solution! Use IE!


Kona, I use Maxthon, and am going to try Avant. However, and I don't mean this disrespectfully...
It's becoming quite rude of you to inject this same ol "IE" answer whenever someone which obviously likes Firefox has a slight issue or comment about it.
Why don't you lighten up and stop trying to piss people off.

I dont recall anything new being added. Thats why Im lost as to the reason. The only thing I can think of was this started after I installed that smiley program that is for Firefox. But right now its no longer installed. I did a quickie uninstall/reinstall so thats gone now. Im not sure how long ago I added that. But..I have used Firefox a long time without any problem..thanks for replies..

Already discovered a bug with new firefox...when you try( at least for me) to quote a post..the quote came up blank yellow spot. No text. I uninstalled new ..put back previous version..problem solved. Odd bug
