arrrrhg! I hate Firefox 2.0!

Why oh WHY did they put the tab X (close) on EACH fricken tab instead of to the right like in 1.x? I keep CLOSING when I click on a tab.

1. Interesting

they did the same thing in Konqueror for a while too, and then changed it. Maybe that was the reason.

One strange thing I find about Firefox. At work on the Windows XP machine, I can close any tab by clicking on it with the scroll wheel. But that does not work on Firefox runing on my Linux machine at home! I think it is the same version (1.5.0.7) in both cases.

2. This is a easy fix...

goto about:config

right click on browser.tabs.closeButtons
select modify
change the value from 1 to 3

5. oh! I got it...

Googled about:config. That was easy! And totally un-intuitive.
Thanks! No X anymore!

7. I like those buttons. What I don't like it is running away with CPU time,

crashing, losing all my bookmarks and everything else it's done piss me off in 2.0

whereas with IE 7 I was crashing all the damned time
