Mozilla Firefox 1.5.0.3

The world is depending on the information and most the information you need is on the internet. Therefore, the tools are critical to save time when wanting to find a piece of information is missing in the puzzle which helps you to do the job better. Who control the information on the internet will be the one will success (a hint from Bill Gate). Mozilla Firefox just does that, it is very fast to search the webs, find info from net then find info in the page, find info. on the web with the less keystrokes less interrupt let your ideas flow from one page to another page for example to search in the article just ctrl f or ctrl + most the key controls as same as other applications like photoshop, or MS word no need to learn a new keystroke control key. I mean that you search the web then you search the content in that page. Google does very good job in this. Larry P. said that the information now can be reached anyone in the globe, there is no different for one engineer sits in the San Jose, Cali and one engineer sits in Bangalore, India. I think the hint & idea from Bill G. and Larry are so correct. In the mozilla-firefox, the search engine is on the top, the bottom appears when needed not like the old browser like Netscape, IE each time find something in the article typing ctrl f and it appears in the middle of the page so you can not see the page. I am using mozilla 1.0 in linux then change to mozilla-firefox 1.0 and last night upgraded to mozilla-firefox 1.5.0.3 - this is a killer application on the net for me. When install just download the rpm it is easy to install no need to compile just a simple command: rpm -ivh firefox-0.10.1-0.1.1.fc1.test.i386.rpm
The final version http://www.mozilla.com/firefox/
No need to remember anything just on left top corner click on Google: mozilla-firefox it will bring to the site. This is why I try talking about the power of information. There is a ton of information you need for your job just search to find a right tutorial and you almost do everything by yourself especially for who is self learning. One thing I wish that the search box in top left should be wider, cache better (if you open the same page it should be faster) because it has been cache, and last file download seems often corrupt and stop without warning. When you install gets the error and do the file check that it is different from original. During download if the connection is down you have to download all over again it is time consume with large file it should remember when it left off and when connected again it should start whereis left off like other program Flashget...if it is incorperated into Mozilla Firefox it will great.
I think it is not because the modem or ADSL are slow but the application makes the browser runs slow. For example we can implement the fast TCP/IP for these applications instead of the old traditional TCP/IP. For more info. about using it http://mozilla.gunnars.net/firefox_bookmarks_tutorial.html
when you go through this tutorial about bookmark manager and other functions you are glad that
I am telling that it has many awsome features. And last, mozilla firefox is a smart browser (secure)it lets you know cookies/any spy adware/tracking adware/virus detection/detected live bookmark (dynamic website/RSS/XML) this allows to download multi news and you can view at one no waiting to download, see above link for tutorial.
So the race is on between IE and the others. Von Brown once said, "the innovation takes time" John F Kennedy once said,"we decide to go to moon not because it is easy but because it is hard".
