[Review] Mozilla Firefox; good/bad points

In a lot of way “Mozilla Firefox” is really good, but don't UN-instill it you find your self lock out a lot of option be block.

I try to UN-instill it 4x (I have Norton; goback 4.0) it will change the settings in outlook and explorer for some reasons I don’t know why it did this.

Outlook 2003 it block me from click-on links in the e-mail body, every time I try to unstill it totally it was block, but I use goback it was enable to click-on links in e-mail body’s. Be warn if you already in still it leave it be. This software browser don’t like tobe un-instill at all it will change the settings in your system to get back at you for unstill it.

If you add buttons in the browser they will show link addresses were this shortcut is link to, it not needed but it there.

Un-instill are crap it will change your settings and a lot of option were enable will be block off afterwards.

1-poor 5-fair 10-super great
I rate it: 3

-4 for un-still option it reset block end user, should never ever reset security option at all or block the user from using other software at all to do things.

-1 button in the browser toolbar when add-in new button it show link address and not the name of the item.

1-keep asking what profile i like to use, gee i am the only user of it.

I block it using my firewall so it never connect to the internet I don’t trust it. It should leave Employer setting alone not reset them so the end user can’t do a thing.

man i got to say it look sweet but thats all.

if you was my brother or sister i would say stay away from it.

+1-plug-ins are nice.
+1-no adware at all plus
+0-did not get any error only was bug like hell on what profile i like to use? only being the only user.

Ps you don't have any option to remove good or bad cookies in this it all. basic you have to delete them all at same time.

Because you said not to un-install FireFox, I had to do it to see what happens.

I just un-installed it with no problems.

It has never asked me which profile I want to use (and I have 2 desktops on my computer.

links in email still work (Outlook 2003).

And you can delete individual cookies.

I'm not sure what your talking about here:

I give it an 7 out of 10

Now to go re-install it

Personally I love the broswer, but someone who is a coder, and didnt know this, which is my fault, you need to test your site in IE and FF, cause FF fixes some errors while IE looks screwed up
