Hi,
I've used firefox, but sometimes it really annoys me.
Ok, let's see why.
Occasionally websites pop up flash windows which I can't close while they
hide the webpage beneath.
Preferences>Tabbed Browsing
Force them to open in a new tab.
On the other hand it would be nice to save flash videos to the
hardrive.
If ^S isn't working, try ^I, go to the Media tab, then select and save
there.
Also when I hover over a link I want to see the link destination
irrespectively of what the website might suggest.
Preferences>Content
Either turn off JS or use the advanced settings to disallow ststus bar
changes.
Moreover, no windows should open without a menu bar making it difficult
to save the file (sometimes "print versions" of articles do that)
This one I don't know.
A last feature that's important is that it restores the webpages I
visited when it crashes.
Try SessionSaver.
