    I already had to downgrade because it wouldn't play video properly.

    I've stopped using Firefox anyway because I've found the recent versions of it to be even slower than IE and it crashes a lot.

    Use Chrome now - much better.

    Yeah, Chrome is the fastest. I have to use Firefox for work though, because i have to use a lot of the widgets. The plug-ins are what makes FF different.

    Used to be pretty loyal to firefox, but it's recent additions have been abysmal. Constant crashing, flash errors, the works.

    Now on chrome. Doubt i'll be going back.

    I use both but you would do well downloading and using Portable Firefox and Google. They work wonderfully and are completely independent of you hard disk and files.

    Give this website a go. They are the championds of Portable applications. You can download to didk, to another disk or to a USB finger key.. And no risk to the rest of your computer. Grest to watch TV online without getting infected. Just as fast too.

    16.01 is safe then ? Because my bloody PC has just automatically updated to it.

    Seriously thinking about switching to Chrome.

    If you think about switching to Chrome, just write all your internet habits + private information on a piece of paper, put it in an envelope and send it straight to Google.
    It's faster than using Chrome, but the result is the same.
