"Has Become My Main Browser (For The Most Part)"
Pros: The biggest thing, in my eyes, about the whole project is the availbility of plugins and safeguards such as SiteAdvisor and NoScript that help protect you from malicious codes being unleashed on your machine. Since I have pretty much used this full time with two exceptions (see cons) the amount of issues AdAware & Spybot S&D have had to deal with have DRASTICALLY reduced, and I don't even surf to sites where those type of things are generally a problem. I love the customability you have in terms of search engines, page emailing (you can even email a full page that you need a password to get into to someone else and they will get EXACTLY what you get without having to belong to that site.) and the tabbed browsing which I first fell in love with back when I was using Avant.
Cons: The only issues I have are that Yahoo! Mail seems to continually crash the browser, at least in my case, which I have given Mozilla this information so that they can get a bug fix installed and that the IE plugin is needed to use sites such as Hotmail, therefore, I still need a little bit of Internet Explorer.
