Ok guys. I'm on mozilla right now surfing the web and the whole screen shakes like the dinosaur thing on the splash screen. Is there something wrong with my Mozilla browser? This is hte only screen that shakes non-stop. Thanks.

Everything's fine now. I just uninstalled Mozilla 1.5 and installed the MozillaFirebird. I wonder if i just downloaded a bad copy of that Mozilla..? Thanks for the help anyways.

Firebird is a tad better as well (imho). It has the ability to utilize themes, and it really is a fair bit smaller/simpler than the regular mozilla. No other stuff like mail clients bundled in either, just a fast, no frills browser.

All the bugs I've run into w/ Firebird are the result of poor coding on the plugin/skinning end. I've never had a problem otherwise.

v0.7 is great!

I agree, the plugin feature is one of the best parts of firebird imho, it really does make a huge difference (When they're codec properly ). The only thing that annoys me about it is the fact that it can't currently handle .mht files, although there is a plugin in development to allow it to do this.
