   Huge problem, and a giant leap backwards.

   I've always found it to be a great feature.   
   I suppose theres different ways to have a couple dozen favorite links   
   available at a click - This was the most convienient that I found.

   I never saw the big attraction to firefox over netscape 7.2 personally.   
   From the little I've played with it, I came to the conclusion that its a   
   7.2 clone with a different name to attract IE users.   
   What does it offer that 7.2 doesn't ?
