Firefox 2.0 Beta 1 Release Candidate Now Available
For the more adventurous amongst you Firefox 2.0 beta 1 is now available. IE7 beta has been getting a great deal of press recently so I thought this may interest a few of the Pixalo members.
FireFox 2 for Windows if you fancy taking it a stage further you can also tweek it to get some extra features… • Undo Close Tabs -- like CTRL-Z, but for tabbed windows. Keep selecting Undo Close Tab from the right-click menu and reopen previously closed windows. Sue-par. • Remove the "X" from tabs -- you don't need an extension to remove that peksy X any longer. • Adding more feed readers • Spell Checker options A great step by step guide is available from here |

Re: Firefox 2.0 Beta 1 Release Candidate Now Available
Google Toolbar & EXIF plug in don't work with this Beta version
On a plus, the spell check works great...... a real plus for forums like this |

Re: Firefox 2.0 Beta 1 Release Candidate Now Available
You won't believe this. A popup from Mozilla for feedback on quality of Firefox, actually caused firefox to crash
Only good thing is this new version restores all sessions at restart of firefox |

Further to Steve's starter I installed it. A couple of days later the email icon disappeared. Re-installed, still not there. Have gone back to 1.5.0.4

Welcome Markulous
Just be prepared for it potentially crashing every couple of hours when that popup comes up

Re: Firefox 2.0 Beta 1 Release Candidate Now Available
Please remember gents that this is BETA software at this point so there is likely to be bugs and problems. I certainly wouldn't use it on a work environment PC or some other critical system
