Firefox 4 looks a whole lot like a mix of Internet Explorer 9 and Google Chrome. Will take some time to get use to.

. . .Let's hope the auto-update solves it.. :)

It did, it realy did do the job finaly; as I expected, when I was confronted with the problems then.  ;D

The upgrading processed well now and the result: a nicely working Morzilla Firefox 4 !  ;)

I like their new rolling release cycle..  :)

Edit:

Yeah, but Matt, Internet Explorer 9 is a joke, and Google Chrome is becoming more than just a web browser. It was a necessary change since these days a lot of people only care about what software looks like rather than how it operates.

I have three:

Internet Explorer - Every website makes it "crash" and have to restart
Firefox - Slow, and jams (least I think it jams - it did something annoying)
Chrome - works

I prefer Opera - it's lightweight and fast. Once customized for your needs, it's a pleasure to use. I don't know if the other browsers support sessions as well nowadays, but when I started using Opera, it was the only one to do that.

I never tried the built in mailing feature, because I like OE.
