    mozilla takes longer time to load compared to any other browsers. Cannot save the last session? and opening new tabs is through the file menu (other than ctrl+T) which again makes it inconvenient, however clearing private data is much easier compared to IE.

    I didn't even know that they were working in IE8, I guess you learn something new everyday here.

    If you're talking about Firefox then you really know very little about this major browser, or about the Mozilla browser then you are using outdated software, the new Mozilla suit is called Seamonkey.

    Firstly, it's true that it takes longer to load, Firefox takes ages to start on my 1Ghz computer, this is the reason why I start off with Opera and start Firefox when I'm going away from the computer.

    Firefox has a terrific session saving add-on which I use myself, I can't remember the name and I'm using Opera right now so I'll update this post later or just browse the add-on database of firefox.

    Opening a new tab in Firefox: CTRL + T

    And I agree, it's much easier to clear private data in Firefox

    i meant firefox.
    i know CTRL + T but i sometimes use mouse for opening new tabs which has longer path in firefox compared to IE.
    one thing bad about opera is it shifts to new window/tab if u open a link in a page, where as IE stays in the same page.

    do post the add-on u mentioned

    Opera does not do this. Have you even used it? The only time it would open a link in a new tab is if the link was coded to open in a new window.

    I use IE6 too. No reason to upgrade to IE7 on a XP operating system and jeapordize stability when I don't even use IE anyways.
