Firefox install

ok, so today i was trying to watch http://videos.streetfire.net/ videos and couldn;t see half of em in IE

so i was reading their site and they said basically IE sucks, and windows media player sucks, but most people can play the videos using firefox...

so i went and got firefox, and no luck on the videos...

getting the latest macromedia flash now so hopefully that works and let me see all the videos...
if you have any suggestions please throw em out...

also, question - google has an IE bar that lets you do quick searches and also highlights your search words and can search for your search words in the page...
any comparable feature in firefox?

you can use crt F to find what you want. also make sure you have all the codecs for wmp

firefox.exe has an error and will be closed by windows...

great...

i would HIGHLY suggest running the latest deer park 1.6 alpha2 dsitro.
it uses half the ram of 1.5.0.1

why does firefox run so slow. its slower than IE on my computer

 

[posol]

it doesn't if you have ram.

and this alpha release fixes a lot of the memory issues. my task manager is hafl as full as it used to be....
not that a browser is going to use a gb of ram or anything though...

 

[ripperbone]

i have 760 mb of ram

remove it, install this alpha.

i haven't crashed it or anything yet. damn stable. some extentions don't work for it yet though....
