    Just downloaded firefox 4.0, it sucks

    looks like opera. How can i change it back, or at least the top of the screen.
    My toolbars look funny and there is a 2 inch blue area on the top except for the
    file, edit, view area

    haven't tried 4.0 yet, but I only use chrome now anyway so doesn't really affect me.

    Never been a big fan of Firefox. To me Chrome is the way to go.

    I still love Firefox because of all the addons, Adblock+, flash block, and Xmarks are great.

    With Firefox 3 everytime I tried to watch a video it said that I needed a plug in. Then it would never let me add the plug in.

    Right click on tool bar and select the setting you want. When you download 4 it defaults to that slim toolbar, but you can return it to what it looked like in three. Play with it.

    I got used to it quick, but changing the tabs to the bottom is super easy, right click choose "tabs on top" and it will move them back to the old way. Toolbars just click customize and then drag and drop like all versions.

    4 is way faster worth the upgrade from 3

    If you really hate Firefox try Chrome, two best browsers IMHO. Chrome was faster until Firefox 4 came out now they are pretty even. Anyone like me that was stuck on roboform 6 and didn't want to upgrade to 7 try lastpass. It's better, a lot better and it's free.

    Chrome 10 was recently released, much better browser than Firefox and obviously better than IE.

    ok i finally got a bookmarks tab in chrome. but the lack of a full menu bar is a no-no for a decent browser. here are some other quirks of chrome:

    is there a drop down address bar?
    is there a open location box like FF?
    is there even a fukkin stop button so i can stop a page from loading?
