    I know many of you use this excellent and essential piece of software.

    Well it's just been upgraded to V1.01 with additional security measures. Time to update me's thinks

    Had no problem un-installing it and reinstalling new version and keep the extensions when asked don't let it delete the directory

    Here's what's new in Firefox 1.0.1:

    * Improved stability
    * International Domain Names are now displayed as punycode. (To show International Domain Names in Unicode, set the "network.IDN_show_punycode" preference to false.)
    * Several security fixes.

    Cool, thanks. I use it quite a bit but still prefer Opera. Maybe latest version will convince me more.

    I think everyone should ditch IE (utter rubbish) MS have proved time and time again they know begger all about security, its only recently with all the viruses/adware/malware that they are deciding to do something about it, also they are worried about Mozilla Firefox popularity at present, I wonder why?

  • the link in the post above takes you to a page where there is a green box with "free download" this states it's version 1.0.1 if you click that it should download!
