Anyone else using Mozilla Forfox browser. The final 1.0 version is out and man is it lightening fast. I can't believe how quick pages load with this.

Man, I have to use IE to enter my attendance b/c the uni's intranet isn't configured for Firefox. 3 mins of loading hell in an otherwise racing internet existence.

Thank you Mozilla!

That's the problem with running Mozilla in Korea... most of the local websites are tricked out for IE. I would love to ditch IE and use Firefox exclusively, but I can't.

Firefox is essentially Netscape. I've been using it for several months, and I'm satisfied. Opera is another good browser. True, Korean websites aren't programmed for Firefox (or anything else but Explorer), which is why I keep Explorer as a backup, eventhough I'd prefer to delete it completely from my computer.

I spent awhile adjusting the settings in Firefox so it has bigger and clearer fonts in the browser menus. Had to add code to the open source.

It's easy to set font size. Click on View, then Text Size. A cool thing about Firefox is that you can easily download themes to completely change its look.

Those only change the text of the actual pages your viewing. I was referring to the URL bar, menus and sub-menus which were too small for me.

I've been using mozilla for a couple years and keep IE only for the really tricky stuff, like Microsoft's update page, or web developers who only look for "IE 5.0+" and do a redirect if it doesn't recognize your browser. I downloaded Firefox last night and it's a fine tweek of Mozilla. It's wonderful what happens when there's some competition again for control of your desktop.
