because Snowfox kept crashing.

BadTux said...: Sad to say, Firefox does plenty of crashing for me. That's why I use either Safari or Chrome nowdays, sigh!

hipparchia said...: yep, i've been through one or two firefox crashes myself.

i've considered trying google's chrome, but since i think they've overstepped their 'don't be evil' credo more than once, i'm more or less boycotting their browser [though obviously i'm still using blogger]. i usually swap back and forth between firefox and opera.; Saturday, January 02, 2010 7:04:00 PM

I've been lucky with the latest Firefox; I even defended it vociferously on a thread yesterday. In the middle of last year, I wasn't so lucky, but they issued an apparent bug fix release. The worst thing about "free" s/w is that there's no one to hold responsible when things go wrong. Sometimes that's no bad thing...; Wednesday, January 06, 2010 12:10:00 AM
