Not sure how many of you guys use Firefox or know about this, but Pale Moon is also another very good browser and also seems to be noticeably faster than Firefox. They also have a migration tool you can use to transfer all of your extentions, add ons and what not to Pale Moons browser. Me and Blu are pleased with it and I just wanted to share it with you guys. For the ones that try it out, plz comment and let us know what you think!

It's also powered by Mozilla so I guess it's kind of another Firefox, but sure seems faster to me :D

Yes Blu is pleased with it lol.

Yeah like Brian said it does seem noticeably faster than Firefox and since it "is" the source code of Firefox it also supports all of the extensions for it. I'm going to try it out for awhile and see how things go, but with the results so far are impressive and I'm happy with it ;)

I'll download it and run it side by side with nightly and Chromium and see how it goes

Alright after some testing, looks like this browser isn't too bad. Fairly quick. Wasn't keeping up with chromium (even with auto load turned off) nor nightly firefox 10 UX. But all in all, not bad. I won't be using it though, and I don't like that bookmark bar. Waste of space.

Nice testing Joe, I'm not even sure what firefox 10 UX is.. Linix? or however u spell it?? Blu's the Linux man lol. But yeah, whatever you like man. Main thing is I just wanted to share with everyone what I found so there ya go lol. And I think you can take the bookmark bar off too, if I'm thinking right..

That's completely fine but did you even try it? I was mainly talking to the ones that use Firefox and maybe some that was thinking about changing. :D

Nightly firefox 10 is the newest developer version of firefox.
http://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla....refox-10.0a1.en-US.win64-x86_64.installer.exe

Check it out. UI is a bit different, They made several improvments. Such as download box is now in firefox itself, etc
