Not even Terminate Process?

There's probably a way to end it with the command line thing, but I don't know how, and it's inconvenient if you were to do it every time.

Anyway, on FF3, apparently you just make it warn you on multiple tabs, and if you're still using FF2 somehow, change your homepage to 'windows and tabs from last time' or whatever it is.

I just found out that

Tools > Options... > Main > Startup : When Firefox starts : Show my windows and tabs from last time

is also in FF3

Yes, and I have it ticked, but it doesn't actually show your windows and tabs from last time.

At least, not mine.

I don't like the GUI very much.

I was using chrome until I found out it sucks on youtube videos and other flash players. It also crashes randomly.

Since Chrome is a new browser, a lot things don't work with it yet, which is annoying sometimes.

Google launches internet browser - MiSSHaku - 2008-09-07

Chrome was good but now it's evil.
Every time I open it I get the Black Address Bar and then it doesn't work so now it's back to FireFox for me. x]

Google launches internet browser - xpimnoob - 2008-09-07

address bar is like eww.. so big and stuff. i like how its all plain and stuff. options are very limited.


but hey, its beta.

I'm gonna wait on downloading Chrome. My FF is customized just how I like it, so I'm not seeing much reason to readjust. The only thing that intrigues me is the tab-crash control and maybe the speed.

Google launches internet browser - Kanyewong - 2008-09-07

Chrome is love, its already my default <3

Google launches internet browser - Arrg - 2008-09-07

Opera starts a lot faster and loads pages a lot faster than firefox on my computer...:f6: I prefer opera over firefox.

Google launches internet browser - Russt - 2008-09-07

Lol, for me Opera loads pages a lot faster than Firefox (haven't tried Chrome on this computer) but it takes a long time to boot up in the first place. Might have to do with me only using it once every six months or something.

Opera is good, but it's way too complicated to use. It's also quite bloaty.

How is it complicated?

Google launches internet browser - Haiku - 2008-09-09

I love Opera. Best browser out there for me. <3 It's had everything I look for in a browser the longest, too. xd It could do with some nicer looking skins, though, and maybe better support with a couple of WindowBlinds skins.. but that's more the fault of the skin designers not looking for all the bugs I guess, lol.

@Dusk: Opera's not complicated at all, and its original marketing angle was that it was a very streamline browser without all the extra unneeded crap, also that it was faster for most people. It's got more to it than there used to be, but it's still not as "bloaty" as a fully equipped Firefox with all the addons activated. :X

However, dis chrome business looks damn promising. I'd like to see where it goes after some open source encouragement. This kind of speed is wonderful.. especially when your internet sucks. (: I can do without skins, but it would be nice to have a color option or something for the blue border bit. :V I like the minimalist aspect to it though.
