    I have a question though...

    for those of you that use firefox do you ever have any issues with photobucket??? I do. I have to use internet explorer to use my photobucket account. Firefox just shuts down if I try. Anyone?

    Try using this
    http://photobucket.com/flock

    I just use it for uploading my photos to photo bucket. Its so much faster and I love it. You can also use it as a web browser but I like Firefox much better.

    I had also had troubles with Firefox and the Photobucket website, but once I downloaded flock I had no more troubles, and its much faster than waiting for photobucket!

    It's not Microsoft? :D

    FF, now especially at 3, is waaaay faster at loading the same web page, which I think is reason enough. FF has lotsa cool plugins as well.

    But le sigh...looks like Sharepoint still wants IE to run well...but then I have IE tab, so woo!

    O lordy, it's just better in soooo many ways. You really have to use it to get the whole feel for it, but here's a few pluses. First of all it is a much safer and secure browser than IE. It is also quite a bit faster. Besides that, there are some fun and useful things called Add ons that you can get that do just about anything you can imagine. I've got quite a few-one lets me take screen shots just by clicking a little button in the browser window, another lets me highlight a word and then choose from a list that pops up which lets me google it, look it up on wikipedia, spell check, look it up on amazon, you name it. I've got another one that blocks those annoying ads that pop up on some pages ( haven't heard the words "Congratulations! You just won 2 free Ipod nanos!" since I got it, lol) yet another one that automatically fills in those annoying registration forms for me...I mean, you can find an add on that does pretty much anything. You can also get themes for the browser to make it look however you want. It's awesome. And best of all it's free. I'd recommend you at least give it a shot and see what you think. It's not as though you can't switch back if you don't like it.
