I read Mozilla Firefox forums daily. They are keeping me from upgrading to FF2.0 in the first place. I'm using 1.5.0.8 with my addons that I love. Too many people are having problems and I don't have the time now to sort it out. I like it as it is right now.

At this point I invariably add something like use flock

(based on ff 1.5.0.8)

I had very few problems with 2.0. It was clearly an improvement.

I use Flock too, and the recent update was a good one. At this point there are only a few things keeping me from moving to Flock as my primary, but if this crashing isn't fixed quickly that's what I'll be doing.

For some sites, i may or may not get a nonresponsive signal from firefox. I'm running vista and some sites seem to make my firefox close down for some odd reason, perhaps this is what you're talking about.

They say on the forums that some websites won't accept FF yet, tho they are learning they must soon. I use IETab, but it crashes my session every time. Any ideas why?

Since updating my Firefox to 2.0.0.1 it has crashed every 10 mins or so.
This is my experience too.. dont update while it is being debugged.

I haven't had a single crash since upgrading. My only problem is some times I get a blue screen inside the browser with I close a tab. I was having to restart in order to get the tabs to respond again, but I found just clicking on forecast fox (set to open in new tabs) then closing that tab fixes the problem. I was having this problem before the latest update though and I think it is just due to some combo of extensions that I am just too lazy to troubleshoot.

I gave up. Using Flock. Reinstalling 2.0 when I get a chance.

I love FF2! Never had a problem. Don't understand all the bad stuff that's been mentioned. Maybe it's a memory (RAM) problem or a maintenance issue. I've been very happy with FF.

The problem we're addressing here is with 2.0.0.1, not 2.0.

I had no problems with 2.0.

I'm loving FF 2 at the moment, but thank you for the heads up about FF 2.0.0.1.

I don't remember crashing, but yeah, I know what you mean. I wish Opera had my Firefox extensions.

I'm running 2.0.0.1 with absolutely no problems, but I'm running windows 98SE (yes, I know a dinosaur) My brother did give me a brand new lcd monitor though. What I wanted to ask you G.D. is firefox won't recognize windows media. I've tried to install the correct files manually to no avail. Any suggestions?

Could you be more specific? Not sure what you're asking.

This is more bad news for me. Upgrading to FF 2.0 solved a lot of the problems I had with 1.5, which wouldn't run worth a crap for me. What sucks about this is that if I start having problems with Firefox again, I won't be able to clip anything on Clipmarks for a while, as I'll probably end up using SeaMonkey until they are resolved.

Go to Flock when things get tough. And, if you install Mr Tech's Local Install you can make most FF extensions work with it. Many will work without doing this, including Clupmarks, but it's a great extension for many reasons. Flock is a great browser.

I forgot to mention, I think you're maybe only the third or fourth person that I've run into that is goofy as I am and has Seamonkey running....

Even though I have installed windows media player, firefox cannot detect the windows media plugin. I have typed aboutlugins and the windows media plugin dynamic link library is missing, which means the plugin is not properly installed. I've looked in C:\Program Files\Windows Media Player), and found the files and copied then to the Firefox plugins directory: C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\plugins, then repeated the previous step and checked that all the files are there. This caused a major crash in my system (Windows 98SE) and firefox wouldn't even open. I'm at a loss at how to proceed.

the above code or a typo caused a smiley, sorry GD; I know how you hate them. It's about followed by a semi-colon, followed by plugins

--"Go to Flock when things get tough. And, if you install Mr Tech's Local Install you can make most FF extensions work with it. Many will work without doing this, including Clupmarks,"

Are any special tricks necessary to make Clipmarks work with SeaMonkey, like saving and installing rather than using the standard extension install link? I'm downloading Flock now, but it would still be nice to have Clipmarks in SeaMonkey.

As for being goofy enough to run SeaMonkey, for some reason I'm kind of a browser geek. I'll try just about any browser once.

kelvin, I would imagine, now, that having tasted flock you'll try it more than once.

Yep. It's a pretty good browser once you get used to how it handles Favorites display on the toolbar.

Kelvin, at present, I have 15 browsers installed.

Flock is such a great browser in so many ways, making their ridiculous bookmarks system just that much more inconceivable. What the heck are they thinking?

I don't know. It looks like they're trying to organize them by tags like del.icio.us and other similar sites. It wouldn't be so bad if it didn't drop every subfolder from the bookmarks toolbar folder when importing.

I've tried downloading the Clipmarks tool into SeaMonkey. It tells me the installation is successful, but the tool doesn't show up. Is there an extra step I'm missing?

Haven't tried it in SeaMonkey.
