OK, I just made Firefox look like IE. I'm a happy camper now.

FYI there's an obscure bug in Firefox since 1.5.0.2 that affects only a few people (me included) which prevents you from reliably copying & pasting, and drag & dropping into/out of Firefox.

I've been to their forums and they're addressing this bug in the next release due out in a couple of weeks.

man even I get this to look like IE6 still is hard to get used to it. IT's hard I am tempted to go back to IE 6 LOL so I uninstalled this piece of art

I need to overcome this addiction.

Spellbound Dev
Tab Mix Plus
Forecastfox
Videodownloader
DownloadThemAll
Customize Google
Fasterfox
IE Tab
Restart Firefox
Bugmenot
Google Preview
Gmail Manager
Adblock Plus
Adblock Updater

and the list keeps growing....hehe

As for IE7, after I installed it I noticed that my hyperlinks in Outlook Express no longer worked so I finally googled the subject and discovered that that's one of its (many) flaws SO.........although you can't un-install IE7, Restore takes you back to before you installed it and now I'm back to IE6 (ONLY when desired mind you) and working hyperlinks in Outlook Express. I use Outlook Express because the Cloudmark anti-spam program (for OL express) doesn't work in T-bird and that anti-spam program is the best that I've used to date. T-birds anti-spam program isn't as good.

Yeah, that aggravated me too. I had to ditch IE7. Both Firefox and IE was crashing constantly on me while I had IE7 installed. I uninstalled IE7 and so far IE6 and Firefox seem stable again. ???
