I would love to use FireFox Fulltime--Microsoft is making it very difficult for us Mac---Hotmail users to continually using Netscape. Firefox is cool, but you have to iron out your problems with downloading files.  In the preferences in the "Content" section, I am not showing "JPegs" in the file choices--why??  How can I add "Jpegs" to the list?? Also, when I go to download any files, the working cursor just keeps spinning and spinning....stalling out my computer where I have to force quit.  I have a G5 and working off of Leopard---can you please fix this so I can use FireFox all of the time.  I had to go to Netscape to even write this... Any help (Quick) would be very appreciated...  You have a cool browser---I just want to use it....thanks...Susie Yagher

Which version of Firefox are you using?  You might want to give Firefox 3 beta 3 a try.
