I upgraded.

Does anyone know how in the Google toolbar bit on the top right corner I can stop the word Google being there all the time? On the previous version it was empty until I typed in what I wanted to search for and now it has Google always there, only goes away if you click in the box and then when you click away it comes back.

I like my boxes empty!

Downloaded the Mac version but now, annoyingly, Firefox doesn't seem to remember all my tabs when I shut Firefox and re-start.

Maybe I'll just have to wait for a newly compatible add-on, although I thought it was an in-built feature of this version.

Bozza -

I had to go back into the menu and tell Firefox to do that.

In options it is called something like "Show my windows and tabs from last time" in the drop down under Main ---> Startup.

Firefox 2 seems faster as well. I will never ever go back to IE again. I have been using Firefox for the last year and a half.

Did you know in IE7 you have to pay some of the add-ons.

IE7 is utter crap, its so slow for a start. Trouble is I can't do things like Online Banking with Firefox, very annoying.

Ditto.

The only issue i've had is that on BA.COM the text is really small..
