Under Windows or Linux, or Sun Solaris.... Only real issue I've had has been getting it and Thunderbird talking nicely since I migrated from Mozilla 1.5a. Right now, I can only use a link in E-mail if I don't already have Firefox open, and I can only use a mailto link if I don't already have Thunderbird open. As for stability though, they're both pretty rock solid for me... Might try version 1.0 which is due out tomorrow, see if it works any better for you. -------------------- Poet and seeker of knowledge

Shamalama, I see that you said you installed it over the protests of your company's IT guys. My brother-in-law works in IT and he says some of his coworkers think that Microsoft can do no wrong. He says that he's glad that, after working with Microsoft all day, he comes home to his wife, his kids, and his iMac. -------------------- Mike F. May the Irish hills caress you.

Firefox is essentially a browser-only Mozilla. Not having all the extras make for faster startup.

Do you have any MP3 software, like iTunes?

If you do, you can download the link and play the stream with that.

Celtic Guardian Group: Wales Posts: 322 Joined: 13-Nov-2004 Zodiac: Holly Realm: Spring Hill, Florida, USA	I downloaded Firefox this week, when I started having a lot of trouble with iE and some of my other programs. Those problems seem to have gone away now...maybe one of the things I tried and was reccommended to try worked after all! I really have no idea. I do like the Firefox, it was very easy to import all of our settings and favorites from IE and the window is easy to read, One popup is all I get a message for, lol, but I never see it, only the bar at the top of the page that tells me it popped up! I should have done it sooner!!!!!! Lil
