Publisher's description of Mozilla Firefox 1.0.2
From Mozilla:Mozilla Firefox is a fast, full-featured browser for Windows that makes browsing more efficient than ever before. Firefox includes pop-up blocking; a tab-browsing mode that lets you open several pages in a single window; integrated Google searching; simplified privacy controls that let you cover your tracks more effectively; a streamlined browser window that shows you more of the page than any other browser; and a number of additional features that work with you to help you get the most out of your time online.
Editor's review of Mozilla Firefox 1.0.2
stars
- "A skillful and secure Web-surfing tool"
- Version reviewed: Mozilla Firefox 1.0.2
The final release of Mozilla Firefox offers enough features to make you rethink Internet Explorer. You can easily create toolbars by dragging and dropping icons. Live Bookmarks turn RSS feeds into something that acts like a bookmarks folder. You can type Google search queries right into the address bar or use the built-in search box. The program displays the page source in a new window, using indents and color-coded tags like an HTML editor. You can view your bookmarks or history in the Sidebar area, which lets you quickly revisit your favorite sites. Though the browser hides its advanced settings, you can still build modules using XML, CSS, JavaScript, and even C . The program includes such tools as a JavaScript debugger and a DOM viewer.
At 55MB for 25 windows, the browser uses fewer resources than Internet Explorer but more than Opera. The built-in pop-up blocker works better than Opera's, IE's, and those of most paid standalone utilities. However, the download manager is still underdeveloped. Though the final release version vastly improves stability, we noticed occasional reluctance to maximize in response to Alt Tab commands. People who want more security than IE provides should look at Mozilla Firefox.

"What a Web browser should be!"
Pros: Although out of the box Firefox is not much of anything else but a great web browser. You control what goes and what stays unlike other browsers.. With a Few configurations changes and tinkering a-bit it has became my all-time favorite browser! It's highly customizable, You can change the speed, the way it works and looks; With lots of Extensions and themes, and css code to choose from. It Has an easy to use interface. I love the Tab browsing features, pop up blocker, high custimizabilty, and the search bar integrated into Firefox. That makes browsing the web easier, safer, and more enjoyable. Heres a few notible extensions I couldn't do without 1.Session saver .2 it saves your session so when you exit out, and come back everything is exactly how it was left. Pages, Tabs, cookies, ect. 2.Adblock- blocks most if not all ads. This update fixes a few things. I can't recommend Firefox enough!

"Second best browser on my list!"
Pros: Quite fast, secure, and a whole lot better than IE. It's very customizable, but it still has some negative signs in my list. It's really good. 4.7/5! Great free browser! It's so good that they can charge fees for this. It's second best to Opera, the best browser in the entire world! Get Firefox now!
Cons: Well, first; it doesn't have skins, just themes. Second, it may be fast; but not very fast. Third, it hangs sometimes. And fourth, it doesn't remember pages when it unexpectedly quits; like Opera. But after those, everything's running smoothly. It's a great browser, and those faults won't make it bad. Get Firefox!

Pros: Safe mode is realy safe. This 1.0.2 is not the latest version. I rate this five cause it can get all the beatings of the internet zone (with all it's beauty and nasty) (wring gramar) :) I use this browser when i need to surf in the most unsafest regions which could be accessed.
Cons: Normal mode crashes for some reason...reasons. but now it doesnt anymore for some reason...
