Firefox 4

[FagEnd]

I'm using FF4 too. Finding it to be a bit of a pain in the arse because the refresh button is now at the end of the address bar, and the Homepage icon is now on the extreme right. I was used to them both being together.
Also, the keywordspy plugin does not work in FF4 yet. I always relied on that for instant PR and Alexa info for sites.

Surprised by the amount of people complaining about the refresh button being moved, I'll always hit F5 before hunting for a button with the mouse.

I've never used a mouse for years, and it's easier to hit the refresh icon via the mousepad than exerting a huge effort to lift a finger towards F5

Getting used to the layout now!

You can actually customise and move the refresh button back to the left hand side, this was something that annoyed me too at first.

We don't like change do we Deirdre

Many thanks have also now moved all my icons back to were I like them.

lol, never thought to try and customise, all back where it should be

Another thing I noticed. When you right click on a link to open in new tab or new window, new tab is now the first option, I was so used to clicking the second option for a new tab, and keep clicking the 2nd option out of habit resulting in a new window. Minor annoyance, but still a pain in the arse.

Yeah I still keep doing that!

Anyone know how to move the homebutton and refresh button to the left and tabs below the bookmarks?

To move the home and refresh buttons right click on the menu area and select customise then just drag the buttons over.

Tabs below: click the firefox tab - options - uncheck tabs on top

On the whole I'm pretty impressed with it, I find it slightly slower than chrome but happy to use it over chrome as I hate they way G forces everything to be a search query by having no drop down like in FF & IE.

One other thing - has anyone used FF4 out of the UK ? It doesn't appear possible to change new TAB default search tld. My home page is google.co.uk but new tabs open with google.localtld search which I believe is set by geo targeting the IP you're on.

A quick work around which is better than nothing is to install below firefox plugin that will start each new tab with your homepage URL.
