I've used Firefox for about four years now and I'm more than happy with it. To be really honest, I haven't seen a lot of difference from the 1.5 version yet. I will report back in a week or so.

I downloaded it yesterday and didn't notice much visual difference other than many extensions don't work now.

From desktoplinux.com "Key new features being introduced in the beta reportedly include an integrated spell checker and an anti-phishing tool."

Of course I use Opera 95% of the time so there would have to be some real obvious differences for me to notice.

I am still running firefox version 1.5, 2.0 gets a pretty good review by Arts Technica though.

Right now, I'm running

both 1.5 and 2.0. I can't see much difference. A spell checker would be nice. How do you get to it? Is that an add on?
