AP Posted an Excellent Review of Firefox 1.0

, the new stand alone web browser from the Mozilla project. One key feature, protection against bogus web sites or phishing fraud, worked fairly well according to the review but we have been unable to find out how to enable it to test. Firefox batted 0 for 6 in our clicks on obvious phishing URLs so we may not have it enabled.

We have been using our copy extensively over the past week and have run into no problems so far. The initial problem with our favorite theme, Nautipolis, was resolved by deleting the copy updated during installation and installing it again from Firefox's theme web site. [Joe Sacco]
