Fixing the Firefox memory leak, which does exist, is currently scheduled for 3.0. I still can't believe that people claim there's no memory leak. I have Firefox on 10 different machines, some with, some without extensions, and they it leaks memory on all of them. If I browse all day, and then I close all my tabs, and Firefox is still using 300 MBs, that's a problem. All you need to do is restart it once every day or two, which isn't a problem with SessionSaver, but it's still a pain in the ass when you're in the middle of something, and it just craps out.

"Fixing the Firefox memory leak, which does exist, is currently scheduled for 3.0. "You make it sound like one memory leak. There have already been several memory leaks fixed for Firefox 2.0 and yes, there are several more scheduled for Firefox 3.0

Hah .. after about 1 hr or less of browsing firefox tends to use about 130 MB of RAM..Good times, good times.Opera is the way to go - but it doesn't render all pages in a visually pleasing way.And there are still A LOT of pages that ONLY work in IE (even though they dont say so) like the web site my girlfriend uses to pay her electric bill. The Next button ONLY works in IE.Tisk tisk.
