So far I like it. I like the new experimental tabs (Ctrl-T). I had a problem with the Java plugin I used from Blackdown Java 1.3.0. But upgrading the SDK to version 1.3.1 fixed the problem.

Wow, I didn't think I could be more impressed than their 0.94 version, but the tabbed windows and the JavaScript debugger kick all ass (they've even named it after Dr. Peter Venkman)!
Java Note: You've got to make a symbolic link to your JRE plugin, it breaks if you copy it into the plugin directory for some reason.
Feature of the Year: Add this to your ~/.mozilla/username/junkstring/prefs.js to disable pop-up windows on page loads (advertisements): user_pref("dom.disable_open_during_load", true);

I have been using Mozilla since the 0.8* versions and have been on a continual upgrade. Is the 0.95 version any quicker at displaying webpages?? Does it still eat lots of memory?? --Should I upgrade from version 0.93??? --Thomas Adam the

The upgrade from 0.93 to 0.94 was a huuuge improvement, mostly in stability...0.95 seems to add some new features (the tabbed display is one feature that I've been in love with since I tried an old beta of Opera a long while back). Moz renders pages faster (and better) than both Netscape and Konquerer (not trying to start a browser war here) and I think it even bests IE on Windows. Unfortunately, the Windows version of Mozilla is much slower than the Linux version....although I'm not sure if it's the fault of Mozilla or Windows. Another tip: Add this to your ~/.mozilla/username/blah/prefs.js to open a link in a new tab by clicking it with your middle mouse button: user_pref("browser.tabs.opentabfor.middleclick", true); In not so many words....upgrade! :-) David A.

David,
Thanks for the tip. I was looking for something like this. How did you
find about this option, is it documented anywhere?

Here are two good sites linked from the 0.9.5 Release Notes: Lots of good stuff to add to your prefs.js: http://www.geocities.com/pratiksolanki/ Mozilla's own customization document: http://www.mozilla.org/unix/customizing.html And after re-reading that second link, I found out that it's probably a good idea to create a file called ~/.mozilla/username/asdf/user.js and add the settings to it...it is read on Moz startup but not overwritten like prefs.js, so your comments don't get nuked. Better description here: http://www.mozilla.org/unix/customizing.html#prefs Developer docs are here, but I can't find a decent API: http://www.mozilla.org/docs/ Have fun! David A.
