Doug, have you ever tried Google's Chrome browser? I was a strong supporter of Firefox too and I still use it daily, but I use it combined with Chrome. And I must admit, it's almost better in every repect. It's faster. It doesn't crash nearly as often.

About the only thing I don't like about it, is that there doesn't seem to be a way to have all your bookmarks appear at the left hand side of the browser windows at all time. Call me old-school, but that's the way I've always used every browser before, and that's the reason I still keep using FireFox. If Chrome is ever smart enough to implement this too, or somebody else does this by creating an app for it or something, then I'll ditch FireFox. For now I'll continue to use both browsers simultaneously. I would advise you to give it a try as well.
