using IE7 in FF3 will it render my hotmail account correctly?FF3 works with Hotmail without the IE Tab for me.If I remember right it does either way, I have been using Windows Live Mail for months now.


LOL....Cavan1 that was my solution for the past couple of months also!

Hmmmmm......Bebi, I thought you were an "Opera" person.Gah what gave you that idea? The last time I used Opera was like.....5 years ago and it still had ads on it,  yuck.


Welll.....maybe it was your reply on my post about how to speed up FF3:

"I used that like, 3 years ago."

I have been using FF for a few years now. Once I got the hang of it I just couldnt see myself going back to EI unless necessary and with IE add-on for FF, I hardly come across any reason.

I love the tabs, the multitue of add-ons that can do just about anything and everything and basically many of the great features such as saving the last tabs before closing, recovery of the last tabs if the system (or FF) crashes, much more secure than EI, hardly an pop-ups; the features are endless almost.

I have a nice set of add-ons that make my more than satisfied. Best of all, I am able to use FF3 at work with the portable version on my portable apps software installed on my Western Digital 250 GB Passport. All my music, some of my videos and software and access to all of it with the portable software on it.

Hey Kenwas,

Thanks for the link. I checked it out and while I had many of those add-ons there were a few I didn't that were worthy of installing. I do have a few I don't see on your list I thought you might find interesting

Split Browser - pretty interesting when wanting to compare 2 sites side by side.

Cooliris Preview - I like not having to click on links to go into sites only to find it's not what I wanted, this program lets me open a window without losing the page I was on before.

Fission - makes the address bar into a statue bar as well. I like visuals

Flashgot - Download multiple things at one time from a site.

Forcastfox - Good weather program for FF

ScreenGrab - Never know when you need to grab the screen you looking at

Scribefire - If you blog, this program is great for writing articles while browsing a site you think has something worth blogging about. It's a great replacement for Livewriter or Microsoft Word 2007 and if you use the portable version of FF, then it's even better to blog while away from your PC.

Thanks for the tips. Some look great. The link however was not about add ons but about the things expected in the new 3.1 version when released as far as speed improvements are concerned. Thanks again for the add-ons!

I'm sorry kenwas, I meant bebi bulma who put a link to the add-ons she uses. I do look forward to 3.1 though.

Just wanted to follow-up on my comment about FF3 & Hotmail.  It seems that they have resolved each other's differences and now the full version of live.hotmail is working under FF3 (I'm running 3.0.3 right now).  I can now finally install FF3 on my wife's laptop.  I didn't want to hear her complain on how it wasn't working with her email and why did I install this POS on her computer...lol.
