FireFox & ThunderBird a must!
I don't know if you all have tried to use these programs yet, but in my opinion they kick hoss! I have been loyal to IE for many, many years. But have been converted. It just needs some google buttons. (It does have the search though!)
I just started using Incredimail over the past few months and didn't think linux would have a good browser or email client. Now that I have used them on Windows, I think that anyone that uses these programs will agree. They are great!!! I only have one complaint. Thunderbird needs a cute little animated window in the top right hand corner telling us that our messege is received, like Incredimail does. It is just a fun thing to watch!

Yes these are nice, but Mozilla Mail will pretty much do everything these do and integrates a bit better with Mozilla imho. I suspect that they won't be added since there is simply no more room on the cd and it's unlikely that Klaus would remove Mozilla Mail in order to mail room. As far as Incredimail goes....yuck.

I have been a loyal mozilla user since about Milestone16, but have been using Firefox almost exclusively since it was first renamed to Firebird from Phoenix. I find Firefox loads much faster, has a lot more extensions and themes available, and is generally much nicer to use than Mozilla. The same is true for Thunderbird IMHO.... the only thing I find lacking is the integration between the two and the lack of standalone "Composer" application. I definitely vote for Firefox/Thunderbird!

I use both of those in tandem at school. But at home I just stick with Mozilla, that way I only need to remember one name (Firebird becomes FireFox, what the hell?)

Got Mozilla, FireThing and Opera installed on my machine at work. Find myself using FireThing more and more - although there are still a few things I really miss from Opera.
Unfortunately IE is still needed to view some sites (both internal and external)...
Anyway, I do hope FireThing gets included soon. As for Thunderbird, never used it, have to use Outlook :((

I have been noticing that FireFox is getting more and more popular everyday. There are reviews and people shouting its name on sites all over the place. IE has finally found a threat.

And you can install it with just a klik on http://klik.berlios.de/ - even if running Knoppix from CD...

Yes, I know, you have posted this about 15 times on all the other threads. Most of us read more than one thread, so you don't have to re-post it that many times. I think it gets people really mad, to the point where you will be flogged.
