If you can't get on to the Mozilla site due to traffic, download.com also has the installer:

1.0 worked like shit for me. No pages were available, just couldn't browse at all. Switched back to 1.0PR and everything went back to normal. Anyone else experienced this? I'm on XP Pro SP1...

works good on mac. PR used to shit out on flash and 1.0 seems to handle it better.

similarly xp pro sp1 and ff1.0 works fabulous on my laptoppie.

It would be good if I could get my safari bookmarks into Firefox! I tried this: http://homepage.mac.com/simx/ but it seems to only work with 0.9 cause it work with 1.0. Anyone else found something that works?
Thanks

"...work with 0.9 cause it DIDN'T work with 1.0."

I've been using thunderbird for a couple months now, like it very much.

you have to turn on the safari debug menu to export safari books
check google for that - it's really easy

I've used 1.0 for a little over an hour now on 10.35 and here's my report:
Pros
- It's faster than Safari and Explorer combined
- The password storage thingy is clever and actually remembers what you saved thereCons
- I can't help it but it's godawful in terms of design. The status bar looks like something from Windows 98 and the address bar becomes diahrrea-colored when a site loads.
- The text is all aliased. Whatever happened to the smooth OSX adjusting I loved so much in Safari? Yiech!
- When you visit HTTPS-sites, or fill in any forms for that matter, it prompts you that you are entering a secure / insecure connection or whatever, and it has this checkbox "alert me whenever I'm entering.. etc". BUT, shouldn't it say DO NOT alert me? It keeps popping up every time.

true i found that to be extremely odd as well.

you can download extensions to make it look neater.

it's faster indeed!
pity some of the previous extensions do not work anymore... also there's not so much contrast between the webpage and the toolbars as in IE. i'm guessing that if you have a grey bg it'll look a bit funny.
what i like the most is that when you browse your HD it looks like default view on web folders. neat.

Thunderbird 0.9 and fox 1.0 seem to be great in XP for me.

FIREFOX IS THE SHIT.

Browser is brilliant, as expected. Although I need to use the web developer extension and it's not compatible.... they need to make with the update

holy shiiiit!
first time visiting NT on FF...
you know, Safari is really fast...
but Firefox beats all!! 0mg!!
if Firefox was a human his name would be Michael Schumacher! :P

wanna import my safari bookmarks

Just upgraded and it's great. No problems.

The Web Developer extension works for me.
HA!Actually you just have to edit a config file, but I don't remember which one. Extensions.rdf, or something like that. Change the max.version (or whatever) setting from "0.10" to "1.0+". Easy a pie, and just as tasty.
