    Burly.
    The trumpet scatters its awful sound Over the graves of all lands Summoning all before the throne

    Death and mankind shall be stunned When Nature arises To give account before the Judge

    Well, this webgeek gets slower page display as compared to IE and no progress meter for "Save Target As" downloads (it just displays nothing and then a downloaded file shows up X minutes later.)

    This is on win2000. I've given up on it. :/

    "Tools...Downloads" (CTRL+Y) brings up the download status window.

    Edit: going from Firefox to IE is like going from brand new full suspension ride to my old '95 hardtail GT. Popups! No tabs! Get me out of here!

    So the default is to look like it's buggy? Sweet.

    It's still slower for me, and this is on two different operating systems. *shrug*

    you could always use "The Fastest Browser on the Planet"

    http://www.opera.com/

    lol. it sucks don't get it. I guess I haven't notice many performance issues. Its always seemed pretty quick for me, but I only use it at work on a t3 and usually within the network so a its poor test. It is highly configurable though.

    Pound for pound, FireFox renders the same page slower than IE for me. I think I have bad mozilla mojo.

    The one thing I've had problems with in Firefox is opening PDF files...and it's probably Adobe's plug-in causing the problems.

    If I'm on a fast connection, the performance diff for me is negligible with the latest version of FF. Even on my crappy ol' 600MHz home machine.

    Eh, time to turn off the work machine and go ride my bike.

    How about Tools -> Options -> Downloads -> "Show Download Manager when a download begins"?

    It was checked by default when I installed.

    Hell, if you're having trouble, just poke through Tools -> Options. Everything is in there, and easy to get to.
