I've been using it for a full day, and it seems stable.

Enjoy.

Thanks.

Unless, of course, you *like* doing free beta testing...

Firefox 1.0 isn't beta. It's went through full beta testing already.

That rule might apply to some software but not when Mozilla have used a
numbering format starting at 0.1 :-)

I have been using it since version 0.6 (many months ago) it is as good as
Internet Explorer in most ways, better in some ways and much better in
others.

Also unlike Opera it appears to be compatible with every site I have tried.

Sweeping statements like yours are very off putting to newbies and these
are exactly the people who should be using anything expect Internet
Explorer.

It is also free.

Free's for me.

Of course, we're talking about me - nothing is stable around me.

Including me.

Later,

Mozilla, Firefox and Thunderbird are good stuff, far superior to
Microsoft's competing products, less bloated, easier to use, easy to
customize, stable, supported, and as the poster mentioned, free.

If this messes up my computer, I'm going to blame you.

And come looking for you to extract retribution.

Like maybe making you say "President Bush Rules!!!" one hundred
times. Out loud. In front of your closest friends. Wearing a
Buch/Cheny T-shirt. :)

All the best,

Tom
