Neville -

I doubt you are going to persuade all FF users, judging by the rest of the extremetech discussion :-). (http://discuss.extremetech.com/forums/1004292531/ShowPost.aspx).

But it’s definitely features like tabbed browsing and the various other extensions that attracted me and have kept me with it, despite occasional crashes and failures to render IE-compliant pages properly.

For me, Tabbrowser Extensions (flaky but very configurable), MAF (Mozilla Archive Format) - which allows pages to be saved as mht ones - Scrapbook (used until I changed over to Net Snippets), and the new IE Tab, have been, or are, the most useful.

This makes it all the more irritating that v1.5 broke so many extensions this time round (only temporarily, I hope, in the case of Net Snippets’ FF extension, and MAF).
