Firefox 7 adds MemShrink, which tries to counteract the memory leaks long found in Firefox.

Mozilla releases Firefox 7.01 update to fix the "add-on hidden" issue. Firefox 7 users are encouraged to upgrade to the latest version. :-)

Speedy. But,
Believe it or not, I've uninstalled Firefox 7 on my Lenovo laptop and am using Internet Explorer 9 again. Why? Because it's faster!!!
But I still use Firefox on all my other computers.

Come on man, don't be using IE. It probably has the shittiest rendering system on the planet lol. Have you ever gave opera a shot ( probably the fastest browser youll ever use ).

Yes In fact I was going to make a browser comparison article, so I did all the benchmarks, speed tests, etc, but then I decided I didn't want to deal with it and a Linux comparison article would be more interesting...
Safari was the worst, not IE...
