    Maybe that's why my wireless connection was acting up until this very day.

    I've had to revert back to the 1.5.0.6 because the newest version hates anything Java and the browsers is freezing all the time. Anyone have a way to fix that problem, as I love firefox but am currently thinking about using something else as all the crashing, freezing and "firefox is already running" errors are starting to remind me of IE.

    firefox is a resource hog, ive lost count the amount of times my pc has crashed because of firefox
    now i sometimes use maxthon which uses less than 10% memory usage.

    Maxthon is just IE with a shell. I like IE as a first choice but I wouldn't want to add anything to it to slow it down. I detest Firefox and only use it as a web page tester. Opera gets my vote as a second choice - I might even use it full time except I'm more familiar with the IE shortcuts..
