I recommend for those who don't use FF to get it, it is a whole lot better, I personally love the use of the Tab windows.
If you don't know where to get it try here at www.mozilla.com
It is free so don't worry about paying....

I hate firefox because I cannot paste any text on or from it. My Opera is fine.

It's just a recommendation, you don't have to get it.

I personally love the use of the Tab windows.IE7 has tabs, but FF is still better.
I like the fact that there is a portable version of FF (http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox_portable). I move around between computers a lot, especially computer rooms at university that don't have FF installed, and portable applications have really saved my life as far as working on different computers is concerned.
A big up to Firefox!

Wow a portable version who would have thought.

Yeah - there are portable versions of loads of programs. The portableapps website has a whole suite of programs, centred around mozilla and open office.
Any program that's made sensibly should be portable anyway, or will be very easy for the developers to make portable (like FF). So basically anything that has a Linux port will be able to be portable, and anything made by Microsoft won't.

I know.
Firefos is the most faster browser but that copy/paste error is annoying me

Do you have the latest version of FF? The copy/paste bug was fixed in a previous version (http://neosmart.net/blog/2006/firefox-copy-paste-bug-fixed/), from what I understand.

Good good :) I really think that one of the best pieces of technology that I own is my usb pen with portable applications on.

Sweet, i love forefox too. It's good how you can select text then right click on it -> then the search engine you have sleceted (in the top right hand corner of the screen) can be chosen to search for it , and it open in a new tab!
It's Awesome!

Yeah Pop-ups seem to be the most annoying for me also, FF is able to block most of them, and it is much faster than IE.
