I actually suffered this bug and lost my "Program Files" folder.
Still, that inconvenience didn't turn me off using FF instead of IE!
(Luckily, all my data files are stored on another drive, so it was just
a slight annoying matter of reinstalling all my apps to "Program Files").

Is it *nix code or winblows? I'd bet my top dollar on the fact you
didn't compile the source under windows. Right?
Don't bother answering...

Oh, but I must. I didn't compile it...I downloaded the binary. And
yes, it's the Linux version.

It should be easily possible to implement this as an extension to Firefox.
Maybe you could ask at the MozillaZine forum if one of the extension
developers wants to implement it?

How did you guess?I guess you're on dial-up?
Sounds like a plan.

For Mozilla:
Edit - Preferences - Privacy & Security - Images - Image Acceptance
Policy - Do not load any images. Right click will then give you the
option to view image.

Thanks for the idea, unfortunately the implementation of that feature
is worthless for my problem.
You click on "view image" and it laboriously loads that one image
while blanking the rest of the page, want to see the text, you need to
"go back." And then it reloads the page (from cache or the website)
minus the image.
You can go and tell it to allow images from that site then click
reload and get them that way. Not ideal, in my opinion. Still no
ability to load the one image on the page that might be useful along
with the text.
The only reason I still cling to Netscape 4 is it allows easy image
control on the fly. Load: none, just the ones I want, or the entire
page of images, without reloading the entire page each time.

And that's precisely the answer I was expecting. It was all part of
a cleverly devised plan. This plan first included the fact that
you... Umm, err... Nah, I got nothing.

I actually may take a shot at compiling it when it is actually 0.9.And that's precisely the answer I was expecting. It was all part of
a cleverly devised plan. This plan first included the fact that
you... Umm, err... Nah, I got nothing.
Just to see if it's much faster when compiled specifically for my
machine. Probably not quite the same as compiling an xmms plug-in, huh?

Mozilla does have tabbed browsing. You should be able to open the
image in a new window/tab & leave the current page as-is. If not,
get the Multizilla extension from the extension room
http://extensionroom.mozdev.org/ . It gives you full tabbed browsing
functionality (similar to Avant Browser for IE). Note: Select the
previous version Multizilla 1.6.3.0 as the latest has a couple of
bugs & the developer is on holidays.

At first, I thought Firefox was an improvement over Firebird. It loaded
my large bookmark file quicker and the bookmark format is better.
But it has several serious bugs:
After using the bookmark file for several minutes, browsing to another
folder in the bookmark file stopped working.
And setting preferences in the Download Manager was not saved.
I will post this to a Firefox forum.

I haven't experienced either of these problems with either the Linux or
Windows versions. Of course, one of the first things I did wrt the download
manager was to install the download manager tweak extension...and it works
flawlessly...so I never *tried* to configure the download manager apart from it.

Just save the .xpi file to any folder (I usually save extension files
to the same folder as my copy of the program's install file). Open
the file with Firefox - it will then install into the correct
directory. I use Mozilla, but most extensions give you the option to
install into either the program folder, or your individual profile
file. Installing to your profile means you won't have to re-install
the extension if you upgrade your version of Firefox/Mozilla.
