I had tried Firefox back at version 1.0 and 1.1. I was not to happy with the
way it was. Is 1.5 any better?
I am well aware of many of the tabbed browser as I have tried them all and
configured them to my liking.

Don't Force it, Use a bigger Hammer.

FireFox 1.5 is not quite there as far as extensions. I am sticking
with 1.0.6 for a while longer. I really enjoy the simplicity and
ease of use FireFox offers. I also recently downloaded Maxthon
browser which seems to be a good competitor for Opra & IE. Good Luck
and thanks for the comments on my Web Site.

Thanks Old Gringo George, I didn't realize a right click on a tab had a drop
down. Make IETab a little more useful.
Asi I mentioned a new tab will open if you right click on a link on a page
and click open in new.

Lot of work. I simply click once on the middle button, but then I use
Mozilla. I can also open a new blank tab by using CTRL-T. So simple.

I spoke too fast.

The tabs are not managing real IE windows. There's only one display
window. Each time you click on a tab, that single page is reloaded from
the URL the tab is referring to. So if you have a form on a page, fill
it in partially, go to another tab and come back to the form, your data
are lost.

Another plus for Mozilla.

I use Maxthon, based on the IE core, a really cool tabbed browser with
lots of options. Incl one I make use of a lot -- it'll recover from a
crash or stall and ask if you want to open all the tabs you'd selected
when it went down.

Same here. I'm really hooked on Maxthon.
