I have a bug, i m using the portable version of firefox 2, the third edition, on windows ofcourse and i have this problem, whenever i try to "bookmark this page", the name/title of the page is lost and i have to repeat the procedure, every time i try, with the second try, it is logged correctly with the name i type.
My Firefox 2 automatically upgrades and tracks back the old extensions as they become available for firefox two, i ve added nothing new and i never had the same problem with the older version, any ideas why its happening?
using the old edition works fine...

i said; it's not that much of a improvement over 1.5. i really expected a lot more for a 2.0 release. well perhaps all the improvements are under the hood. 
ok guys, i'll explain it, why opera is for me the best there is.
DISCLAIMER: i'm not saying firefox can't do any of the things listed below, but opera does it by default. you install opera and this is what you get.
what i love about opera:
- tabbed browsing. duh..
- mouse gestures. ff really has to put that in the default installation. and the add-on they have for mouse gesture doesn't do it any justice. i don't remember the last time i pressed the back/forward button
- integrated mail client; ff has a nifty g-mail checker. duh; opera has a mail client that supports the pop3 protocol and you can downlaod all your gmail right to your desktop without the need to log into mail.google.com
- it's cost savy: if you pay your internet per the MB, you'll learn to love opera
- it has a integrated irc chat client
- it has a integrated rss feed reeder
- it has a integrated .torrent client
- it has a integrated widget engine
- it starts up faster than any other browser
- and to rap it up; it's proven to be the fastest browser time and time again. no add on will make your ff load pages faster than opera. and that's the most important thing in a browser for me
ff has tons of options to be customised to your specific needs, and that is really great, but what i listed for opera is all the customazation i need. all the things that matter for me in a browser, and it's out of the box. just like ubuntu. :toast:
