Firefox Moox question

hi, i'm going to install a Firefox Moox build, and i wanted to ask if i have to uninstall the version i have now (1.0.3.) or can they both be installed at the same time? thanks

 

Good morning Ice!
Found some sites/links on firefox moox builds:
http://www.moox.ws/tech/mozilla/firefox.htm
http://www.moox.ws/forum/viewtopic.php?t=154

 

bump ........

 

OK got it thanks nadirah, the second link you gave had what i needed. it was just about what i was going to do, i had made a back of C:\Documents and Settings\iceni\Application Data\Mozilla and i was going to uninstall the version i have now. so i'm going to uninstall FF reboot, install Moox, then work on a new profile. i really hope Moox will be stable for me thanks again

 

Moox is faster and more stable for me than the normal FF builds

 

Hi
Does it now run weel again with the SUN's JRE ?

Previous FF versions hanged when trying to open a Java applet
Thanks

 

For me it does, but then again I never had Java problems with MOOX release builds.

 

Hi SSk and thanks for reply...
I do have problems, even on Moox's versions since 1.0
I'm running XPSP2.
Cheers

 

Hmm, strange. Do you have the same problems with java 1.4.x ?

 

here's what i did:
i got the latest moox build, extracted to a directory of my choice and ran it from there. it retained all my profile/bookmark/extensions settings as for the java problem, maybe u could try the latest update which i think was just released recently, j2se 1.5 update 3.

side note: although i'm still using moox, i can't really spot a difference between original ff and moox, in terms of stability, speed or otherwise.

@nadirah: are u a singaporean? or u're just interested in current affairs?

 

Moox builds are over-rated. I bet most people who think it's faster, havent subjected it to a real test. Probably this perception of speed is fueled mostly by wishful thinking.

 

I AM a Singaporean. I'm interested in current affairs, mainly the latest news.

 

In terms of speed, the regular Firefox will max out my CPU and cause a "stuttering" effect when loading a graphics intensive website, I don't get this with the Moox builds. On my girlfriend's machine (1ghz celeron) and the laptop she's using right now (333mhz), Moox' builds are very noticibly faster. Of course everyone's system is different, so individual mileage will vary.. but you already knew that
