ever had trouble w/Outlook Exp crashing evertime you open it to get email ?..
switch to Thunderbird like i did,
*Not 1 crash yet ,since about 4/07*
~ you'll be glade you did ~
Mozilla’s Thunderbird 8 email application is more powerful than ever. It’s now even easier to organize, secure and customize your mail.
* * * * * *
What is Mozilla Thunderbird and where can I get it?
Thunderbird is a graphical email client and newsreader developed by the Mozilla Foundation. The application, available for Windows, Mac OS X, and Linux, includes support for both IMAP and POP email.
Email is downloaded to your computers hard drive some where so it can easily be backed up in case of a crash (as i do weekly to a portable) you can get ALL emails back not like if it's on the server where info is lost if it crashes
( ( ( for for Firefox & Thunderbird Portable apps go here > PortableApps.com ) ) )

A Really good backup program that works on Both Firefox & Thunderbird .. MozBackup.
back up's are easy to do on Firefox with this cool little add-on *> FF12 FEBE7.0.3.3 < *
(Firefox Environment Backup Extension)
allows you to quickly and easily backup your Firefox extensions. In fact, it goes beyond just backing up -- It will actually rebuild your extensions individually into installable .xpi files. Now you can easily synchronize your office and home browsers. works on Firefox 3x
~ NOTE ~
( ( ( I use it & wouldn't run firefox with out it,it's 1 of the best addon's there is for firefox ) ) )
Update 3/29/11 the above verison of FEBE will only work on FF up to 3.6.16
FEBE for Firefox4 > FF10 FEBE < click here *dnload this FEBE7

How To Make Firefox Load Faster
Have you ever noticed on how fast IE loads compared to Firefox? That is because XP preloads IE on its start-up.
After some research i /aka(person that wrote the story) found that Firefox developers have chosen not to tie up system resources before they really need it, but if you want it to load fast it is possible to achieve that by doing the same thing as what IE does.
1. Put your Firefox shortcut onto you start menu. Easier way of doing this is if you have a shortcut on your desktop
drag it onto you start button on your button left.
2. Right click on the shortcut in the Start Menu & Task Bar and then 'Properties'. Find the target section which should contain something similar
"C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" /prefetch:1
Now by doing this Windows XP should preload Firefox on its start-up, so Firefox loads as fast as IE.

How To Make Firefox Load Faster
I did just this + i have tweaked the browser to get a faster pg load here's a link for the other tweaks i did & always have done does fine...
lifehack.org-(15 Coolest Firefox Tricks Ever)
see # 1st#10=about:config /this will get you to the area for 12,13,14 & 15
Please Note ... these tweaks work on Pc's for sure,
don't know if they apply to
Mac's or not ??
Note: ...
I use lots of if not all the above things to tweak Firefox ,,and i will say the biggest thing anyone can do to Firefox is 1st do the [ /prefetch:1 ] like it says above and then start doing the others # 12,13 & so on ..although you don't need em cause Firefox 3.5 is the fastest i have ever seen it and i have been using Mozilla for 4 yr the rest just makes it that much faster
Works with Thunderbird above Yahoo and many other email programs.
the download link version is the one i use click link to Rt for newest
