Other than the lack of Windows Media Player plugins, it works just
fine.

Re: Firefox on Vista?...

The way Firefox has been attacked over the last month, it's not safe to use
anywhere.

RE: Firefox on Vista?...

I'm using IE, FireFox and Opera, all without too many issues. IE had an
issue with Flash, but that's been resolved and both Opera and FireFox cannot
seem to use the Media Player plug-in, but beyond that, it's all good so far.

You know, this was a constructive thread -- a number of MVP's get bent
out of shape with Linux and Mac trolls. No need to return the favor.

Re: Firefox on Vista?...

I use it. I just said it's not "safe" to use anywhere. It has problems, just
as those that continually plague I.E.
