Thought I'd try this out, see if anyone is into sharing what cool stuff FrieFox does. I recently installed it, as per Advise from

HJ and Chris etc. The Pressure, and the Constant IE7 crashing Issue I had, also IE8 I tried with the same Damn Crashing for no

reason, that I could ever figure out, I looked everywhere for answers, got suck of it so now I'm a FireFox v3.08 User!!

First of all is that the right Version for Vista 64 bit, or is there separate versions for each OS, from MS??

I'm a tad mifted about how the tabs work, they are not like IE7 which I love their TAB system, so I go to FILE now and hit OPEN new tab

is that the best way to do it? Or no? In IE7 I just picked out a my fav link clicked it and had a new tab, now I have an extra step to go through

unless anyone knows differently? Also when I go to a bunch of my Fav site FF wants me to install the Plug in, to see the Vids and or Images,

I do this, but next time I go there (same exact site) it wants me to install the Add-On/Plug-In, AGAIN!! Whats going on there>>

I have a geed friend helping me with learning FF, si I have to check with him as well, might have info already!!

Anyhow any GOOD TIPS on Using Plug-Ins that Stick in FF and how to get new tabs without using file key would be great!!

Any TIPS, Please JUMP in, I'm a FireFox n00b!! LOL!!

Thanks In Advance!!

Yes I read stuff too, just need some Basic TIPS is all!! HELP!!

Thanks for all the TIPS and HELP GUYS!!! I'm getting the Hang of it, I added some add-ons that you guys suggested.

Hay what if you want to delete them, how do you do that??

I have The Weather Channel on the Bottom, it's really Cool, 10 day forecast, gang of Weather Info.

But I don't really use it much, I know I can disable it, but can you delete it?? Or any of the Add-Ons?

All in all, FF is cool, very customizable and has never crashed once yet!! Like IE7-8 Did, I tried to fix it

but couldn't. It did'nt crash that much, but more than I like for sure!!

I make my own Icons now for websites, w00t w00t, so I can find them easy. By just seeing the ICON

I'm a Visual kinda Guy. LOL!! I have the add-0n Personas, for FF it has a bunch of cool a$$ themes, I use a Blue one of Course!!

It looks really Pretty IMO. I use IE7 still if I am in a Hurry as I know where everything is, FF put all my Links in Alphabeticle Order so I got lost!!

But hell, I have WAY to my Bookmarks/favorites anyhow, I really need to get rid of about 50 or so, LOL!!

Again That's, and I hope we can share stuff as we find them out, Big Thanks to HJ !! He's the FireFox GURU.

Thanks again!!

I use Basics 3.0.1, it's a Uber Simple Add ON, all it does is add a TAB Button, for starting a new Tab, Excellent!!

Here's a Link to it:: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/69 (very Simple)

OH and Scavy and Chris big Thanks too, Chris has been after me to switch to FF forever, LOL, HJ too, and Scavy always has good ideas!!

The DARK SIDE!! LOL!!

Man I love FireFox, took me a couple days to Dial it in and organize all my Links, now I have them in seperate folders

and Named them, stuff Like Vista Tips, Gaming Stuff and so on. My Bookmark list that was like 200 long is now, about 30!!

I can see them all with one click. Much Nicer than IE6,7 or 8, as it's so Damn Customizable, I just love that!!

Plus I get Spell Check everywhere I go!! Yee Haa!! Been playing with Firefox all day, should be trying to get through Dark Sector!!

But Scavy's been helping me there too, we exchange notes, so to speak. You did git that 40,000 Ruble Rifle huh? that thing is BAD A$$.

It's the best GUN in the game AFAIK!! Now I'm all into the Sci-Fi Channel, Scorpion King is on now!!

FIREFOX RULES!! Look my Dancing Banana is stuck, LOL!!

cause i would have all most a 1000 or more open up over all well darn close to it with everything im into that is. but Blue isn't it weird that at 1st you had it and i was asking you question. and then out of the BLUE your asking me? or is it just me

and yes the spell checker just pwns all !! i even got a add on for it to keep it up to date as well.

Where's the "Keep Spell Checker Up to Date" Add-On?? I thought it did it by itself? Or no?

So far so good with FF, no crashing, at all!! Loving that action!!

I was talking to one of my Brothers and he said IE7 and 8 don't ever crash on him, hmmm? Odd.
