Firefox vs Explorer

[Submarine Washer]

I use my PC extensively and consider it a tool to get something done, not some holy thing that needs to be continually and unnecessarily cared for.

Due to a minor glitch on Explorer 7, I used Mozilla Firefox 3 for a day.

I've fixed the Explorer problem by 'upgrading' to 8 Beta, but I still want to carry on with Firefox anyway as I find it friendlier.

I've imported my Explorer Favourites into Firefox Bookmarks.

When I add new Bookmarks, how do I put them in alphabetical order?
In Explorer, I'd right-click and sort by name.

Thanks

Never mind.
It's view - sidebar - bookmarks - right click - sort by name.

Tell you what try Google Chrome

The add on, All In One Sidebar, is useful for organizing bookmarks and much else in FF3.
(The link is to the 7.8 version; make sure you get this or the 7.6 as the 7.7 has an annoying little bug).

You also want to install:

Ad-Block Plus
British English Dictionary
and of course: Daily Dilbert

There are loads of extensions for Firefox, it's one of its strengths.

If you really can't live without knowing the traffic conditions in Istanbul, there is even one for you!

I've just switched the firefox from IE after a security issue. Google Chrome is very very fast!!! Although it still needs some developing until I ditch firefox

FYI you can type searches into the address bar in firefox as well

no adblock on chrome means I will stick with firefox (along with loads of other things - not least being a linux user )

And it also has an 'incognito' mode for when you want to search for erm personal stuff late at night

I have to say that I really like Chrome. Was surprised at the sheer speed performance it has. Our back end is very Ajax heavy which of course is very java heavy. The render times where in an order of magnitude faster than Firefox. Explorer is a distant memory. However like other posters I will continue to use firefox until Chrome matures some more.
