Software Review: Mozilla Firefox 1.0
Ever since I haev made up my mind to try out MAC OSX on an iBook, I have looked to this little program to become familiar with. Not being a huge fan of Safari, this browser made by a team of independant software developers has the edge on Microsoft's Internet Explorer on security and plug-ins. I am impressed with the feel of the browser, and the built-in themes are a bonus. It seems to load webpages faster, and alerts you when you are viewing an ecrypted page (Useful if you purchase alot of things from internet) You can bookmark a page with a right-click, also move browser back and forward with the right-click as well. One of the most useful options I love its the "send link" option in the right-click menu, it copies a link to the page, opens your default email program, and pre-fills the subject line in, if you are constantly bookmarking and emailing links to your favorite websites like me, then you certainly can appreciate this feature. Best thing is, this version is available in PC or MAC, so you have the same "feel" no matter what kind of computer you are working on.
My rating 4.0/5.0 (The only downside: The copy/paste link doesn't work on address bar)
