Latest Mozilla Firefox
Well, after leaving the Netscape/Mozilla camp about a year ago when NS7.1 install trashed itself without recovery. I have been using Slimbrowser, an IE "wrapper". It functions well has some good features but lacks real flexibility. Now I have returned to looked at Mozilla FireFox 0.8 the latest standalone browser from the Mozilla fold. Simply put, if it never gets any better than this I'll be happy. With the right extensions and 30 mins tweaking FF is without a doubt the best web browser I have ever seen. 100% standards and quick as a bunny too.
Look Here for info and download.

Woo Hoo! I haven't kept up to date with this, so thanks for the info. I've been using FireBird 0.7 for some time and love it to bits! It's a shame that I still have to use IE for my internet banking.... gonna get onto my bank about that..
Will download the new FireFox (great new name!) later and check it out.

yes firefox is a really good version in every apects but the speed. You can take a look at http://avalon-soft.com (dhtml bench) to see by yourself. The moz community is aware to that and hardly working on a fix. I'm writting dungeon master legacy and 'cause there no high speed needs I don't have to care !!!

got the new tabbrowser extensions 1 week delayed because the link at extensions in ff leads to a wrong extensions-collection without them.
stupid me thought this page was updated instead of comparing the url with the one in my favs.
at least i got them now
can't browse without anymore (not kidding).

it has settings to make the tab-management more intuitive. you can change where the focus is set to when you open or close new tabs and enable the single window mode (only one browser all the time). you can also make some stuff like tab groups, which i don't use. all in all, you can change about everything (at least everything i could imagine) concerning tabs. it also adds drag and drop for tabs.
since i post in many forums and have the browser always opened, i use the tabs very much and i got used to their behavior from crazy browser (ie-frontend) and needed a tool to make them work the same for firefox. if you are used to ff, you might not need it, but it is surely worth a try.

@Gambit
Are there any new graphics in the FM-Towns version at all? i would like to aquire it, but it seems like a big undertaking......and if there is only the new music, that christophe's site is mentioning...
seems the blue part is saying that those graphics that get displayed by an X arent made yetIs, it is the じ ょ it is it increases, it is ぁ
As for name refers the NEC PC-9801 5 inch 2HD edition the expectation
which When the PC-88 and the FM-TOWNS and the X-68k and the MegaDrive and the SFC and the like it differs delicately, it is
The picture [ has become X ], mono it is not made yet

ah, thanks for the answer. quite a shame, though. ..i remember that the classic lucasarts adventures all had significantly better graphics on the FM-Towns Computer ( 256 colours )...along with CD music. ( In case someone is interested: those where Indy III, Loom, Zak McKracken )
