Well, I am a bit prejudiced as an Apple-user since 15 years ;-) I simply don't like Microsoft's aggresive marketing strategies, as if there were no alternatives at all... And yes, Firefox is just working like it should - like a Mac actually *grins* Yay for Firefox!

LL's fault. It seems that best thing is to skip clicking on SLURL's and to delete secondlife:// protocol from your browser. Launch the client and type the location manually.

And Timothy, why would we want to make your life more easy? *grins* Best one I've seen up to know, was schweppes.be website. They had a nifty, kick ass, good looking flash movie playing (actually, the whole website was flash, I think) but it did not do anything in FF. At all. I e-mailed the webmaster@ address I found by using IE, noting that a lot of people use FF and that not only IE users love the schweppes agrum. Two days later, I got a reply: email address non-existent. Aaargh! *goes to check if - after a year - it's fixed* Yep. Fixed. :d As far as I understand from the comments, FF was not safe either, but is patched now, so upgrade the FF?

Now! And in addition to all the thing's said above, you'll make a lot of webdesigners/web developers (like me) VERY happy, cause adapting webpages especially for IE can be a pain in the a**. Spread the firefox, abandon the IE! ;-) I totally second that: Go and get Firefox! Now!
