Not much happening here, so I thought I'd rant about Firefox for a bit.
Firstly - Have you tried Firefox?If not, Why not?
Its Free, Its Faster, Its Safer, Its BETTER!
On top of it all - you can add in some very nice extensions, such as weather info on your status bar below.
To get a list of available extension, and presuming you are already running Firefox, click on TOOLS --> EXTENSIONS
Here are a few that I like:
ForecastFox - IE Tab - Tab Mix Plus - GMail Notifier - DownThemAll
There are hundreds of themes to chose from, so you get the look and feel that you want.
