I'm giving Firefox a try. The last time I tried it was last year when it was still called Firebird... Didn't like it then, hated the tabs, but will see how it's going now.

I assume I can ask questions about the browser here? I'm very accustomed to doing things in a certain way, and would like to see if I can customize Firefox to fit my needs.

1) Is there a way to get Firefox to download plug-ins automatically? The first site I went to, it detected a Flash component and took me to Macromedia's site...can't it download them automatically? I could've sworn IE downloaded Flash support on its own.

2) Is there a way to get rid of the image placeholders? I hate them, always have...it was the #1 reason I never used Netscape/Mozilla. Well, that, and their slowness.

Other than that it seems to be pretty fast, once it has loaded.
