[Wolves] Firefox?

[Chris Procter]

Running it on windows as my default browser, seems faster then 0.7 (Mozilla
Firebird, Pheonix, whatever) to start up, but not faster to wake up after
long periods of non-use (although Fire* generally is faster at starting and
waking up then Mozilla in my experience). 

It has a nice downloader, erm, apart from that... might be a bit faster
rendering I supose...

There are no real noticable big changes from 0.7, upgrade if you can, dont
worry too much if you cant just yet.

Oh yes I forgot one big change, it has mozilla's DOM inspector which 0.7
didn't, nice if you're a web developer, probably not important if you
aren't.

I installed it and ran it once.. didn't create a button in XFCE for it
tho, so I keep defaulting to Mozilla.

It sure looks nice, dunno about the rest of the stuff .... doesn't seem
any quicker to start than moz 1.6 *to me*. I guess the only nice thing is
the good search bar that appears immediately.
