The fact it is so interwoven into the OS I find it a security threat. I do not think your browser should be able to make registry changes. Foxfire is nice. I have some issues with its some of the addons. The core browser however is standards friendly, makes a nice companion for development, Has gotten me addicted to tabed browsing, Is fast and light weight, Most of all, it is secure. If it isn't secure the patch will be out within a month. Open source is the way to go.

It tends to place margins around the page even with topmargin = "0" margin = "0" set in the BODY tag. I have even used CSS to try and kill the margins, This makes tableless layouts a bit more difficult to design for cross browser. position: absolute can end up looking quite different in the various browsers because of little things like this. Let the developers dissplay thier pages the way they want!
