| Same here, FF isn't as stable as they want to make us believe. FF keeps crashing using test 2 (on unload) : http://popupcheck.com/freescan/popup...t_advanced.asp But, that isn't what you can understand under 'normal use'. |

| I never had problems with firefox and I've been using it for months now. the only thing I get is that some pages don't display correctly but that's because of the poor coding rather then firefox. |
