Babelfish is the only add-on that works for me. I installed Surf Canyon and Foxy Proxy and have used neither. I stumble around a lot of blogs written in Spanish and being able to highlight a word and have the translation is invaluable.

Internet Explorer takes too long to start up and every update seems to make it worse. I switched to Firefox and I have been totally pleased.

I used to love FireFox but it runs so slow and often locks my computer up. I removed a bunch of plug-ins/add-ons and it still runs slow. I've timed it taking as long as 7 minutes just to load. Yikes! It's funny how we all have different experiences with things, isn't it?

I also use Adblock Plus, XMarks, PDF Download, and Multi-Row bookmark toolbar. I see no ads with Adblock Plus and XMarks enables me to synchronize my bookmarks between my two computers.

The Add Bookmark Here add-on has not yet been updated to work with FF 3.6.

I assume you are cleaning your computer content regularly.

I use FF which takes less than 5 seconds to load for me. Overall much faster than IE in my system.

Apparently, it's part of the Yahoo Toolbar. I don't have that currently, but when I looked at altavista.com that's what it suggested for Babelfish.

I used to use firefox too. (still do for some things) but now I use Chrome almost exclusively.

I usually have 8-10 tabs open and firefox really slows down when I punish it like that.

Yup, about weekly. And extensive anti-virus/spam/yada yada software with a nightly sweep.

That's my issue, too. Chrome is so clean and quick. Also, I have a pretty small monitor, I think 13". Chrome is spare and uncluttered giving me more real estate for the sites I'm visiting.

Thanks for the tip Chubbs. I have reverted to 3.5 so I can use the "Add Bookmark Here" add-on and can also enjoy the various personas. I find the "Add Bookmark Here" add-on to so very much simplify bookmarking in my Bookmark Toolbar, that I can't live without it.
