That article is epic win.

Hmmm, i haven't gotten FF4 yet. I will try it out though, to see if it is really that annoying as people make it out to be.

[Bjossi]

I like it hard too.

 

That's what she said.

 

Wait... that came out wrong...

 

And that's what she said. . . afterwards.

 

 

I will be checking out that link later, it can only help to be familiar with FF 4 before switching permanently.

What the hell are you people talking about?

 

The meaning eludes me

[Bjossi]

You say "That's what she said." if a sentence can be interpreted in a sexual way and is something a woman could say.

 

Sooo. . . Firefox 4 eh?

[J.C.]

Oh. You are talking about that watchamacallit... coitus thing

 

 

So yeah, let's get back on topic... Firefox 4. Haven't tried it yet. I use mostly Chrome... AND IE!!!!

[Bjossi]

IE, as in...

Internet Exploder.

Internet Exploiter.

Internet Exposer.

?

 

[Alyxx Thorne]

IE as in i.e.?

[Kirkreng]

I use IE5 as in Internet Explorer 5ucks, HAHAHAAHA . . sorry.

To enable Firefox 4's notifications on closing, enter about:config in to your address bar and click through the warning.

 

Search for 'warn'.

 

Set browser.tabs.warOnClose to true , browser.warnOnQuit to true, and browser.showQuitWarning to true. You might also want to set browser.warnOnRestart to true. That should hopefully take care of the problems for anyone bothered by it not displaying a box when you close the browser.

 

 

At least they seem to have 'mostly' fixed the memory leak issues from Firefox 3.6.

[Bjossi]

Is there a (set of) variable(s) to move the buttons around, by any chance?

[Lord Sinister]

I don't know I'm afraid, I don't feel the need to move any of the UI buttons around (bar one niggle that I've explained below), although wherriot7's link may hold the answer you seek:

Personally I would like to know if there's a way to restore the right-click 'New Tab' function. For some reason they removed it and I've noticed I used it a fair bit because I keep accidentally reloading tabs when I mean to make a new one. I found one addon that added it back, but it messed around with far too much other stuff for me to want to keep it for just that one thing, so I removed it.

I'm on Chrome (which is 90% based on Firefox) and I don't want all that extra crap. I'm a gamer, not a full-time web surfer.

Thanks a lot for this, IT HELPED A LOT!

Yes, most of the people like to keep it simple.
