I can't believe what I am reading......................it's like an advertisement for IE7........it has most of the user frinedly features that Firefox has (I don't know from safari) without blank pages, plug-ins, fixes, work-arounds. Jacky, I don't know about your other points as I have fooled around with it long enough, but you are wrong about this: "2. At Firefox URL box/bar at the top of the page, you DO NOT have type "http://www.timetechtalk.com" to come to 3T for e.g. All you have to do is type "timetechtalk" and it will bring you to 3T too. In other words, if you know the URL site's address is "http://www.xxxxxxxxx.com", all you need to do is just to type name in the Firefox URL box/bar. IE 7 does not have that." Even IE6 had the capability of entering the simple website name (ie: timetechtalk) in the address bar and hitting "Ctrl/Enter", bringing you directly to the site without having to type the http://www.timetechtalk.com. You don't even need a special URL box!!! So could be with a little more investigation with an "open mind", one might find improvement........perhaps not. I, for one, did try Firefox at the suggestion of several people. I found it to be a nightmare both when it was installed and I was trying to use it, and with the "linking" problems it left me with after it was uninstalled. I know there is a distaste for little Billy Gates out there, but............you have to admit that the program MS writes to work with their Operating Systems work much better than the 3rd party "improvements".............and besides, when the demand is high enough, Billy buys or steals the ideas and puts them into his programs! :P
