I gave a friendly clap on the shoulder to a co-worker last monday.

Now I'm sharing a prison library with fifty inmates.

Moral of the story? Make sure you don't clap someone on the shoulder if they're preparing to jump off the building.

I haven't tried it in Windows.  But in Linux it locks up X at random intervals and makes me have to kill all kinds of lagging processes to clean up after it.

Plus, I like mouse gestures, and Firefox doesn't have those unless you install the stupid extension for it, and the extension just causes it to lock me up twice as often as before.

Ick.

I'm assuming it's not so flaky under Windows?

Mouse gestures changed the whole interweb experience for me. I always find myself using them, no matter what browser I'm in! Which really ruins most other browsers for me :roll:

I pretty much use Firefox exclusively in Windoze environments (I use Safari on my Mac.)  No problems whatsoever.

I have a second stylesheet set up for IE, and it gets deilivered based on your browser identification string. If Opera is set to identify as IE, they render using the same stylesheet. The Opera one should have different link colours, whilst in IE all the links are white. It also has slightly different values for div sizes, since IE can't do maths!

Uh, Konqueror isn't Mozilla based.  Do you perhaps mean Galeon?  That's Mozilla based...

I usually use Galeon on Linux machines.  Opera doesn't suck either.

Galeon is the only Mozilla based browser I've used that I actually like.  I think the rest of them are caca.

You could use the time you won't be spending installing it again to explain what the difference between 'good hell' and 'bad hell' would be :)
