              Thats corrupted gifs, you might need to re-upload the cpstyles folder in Binary mode.

                Yeah. There isn't a truly good search engine that can't be manipulated by spammers, including Google, so I bookmark every good page that I come across when doing research on various topics. Some disappear over time but I check them about once a year and see if they need to be deleted. Many don't though, which I guess is the hallmark of a good site. I have some sites that I have visited since 1996.

                They are all categorized into folders and sub-folders. They are easier to maintain in Internet Explorer because I don't need to use the browser to do it but they are more portable in Firefox because they are stored in a single file. I carry my bookmark file on a 1 GB SD Card anywhere I go.

                  Firefox is also eating a hole in my memory. It's up to 78MB with 2 tabs open in one window.

                    That's strange - The latest version uses a lot less memory for me. I have 57 tabs open and it's only using 68MB of memory.

                        I believe Firefox's memory allocation is completely random and arbitrary. It fluctuates too much.

                            A friend of mine told me Mozilla's browsers (Yes, Firefox included) has a hidden spyware and a trojan. Everyone, listen... DON'T USE FIREFOX!!!

                            (Or Mozilla Suite or Thunderbird or Netscape [Except for the latest one]!)

                                Personally I love Firefox, it does some things so much better than IE ever did (for example stopping popups etc).

                                It seems alot more responsive now that 1.5 has been released to me and I haven't seen any problems with any websites so its all good so far .
