Likewise. I couldn't even be bothered to find out too much about them;
I just noticed an icon in the url bar that I didn't recognise, and
wondered what it was for. A quick search of the 'net came back with
results that boiled down to 'resource hogs'. Still using a five y/o
dual core machine here and not too much RAM either. CPU cycles count
for something here.

I know how bloody frustrating that can be - think you've missed out a
few chars, then the buffer dumps a load of cack into the text gadget.
Grrrrr.....

Depends on how you define 'do one thing', I suppose. One /could/ argue
that "the internet" is one thing and Ff should handle it all. Like you,
I don't belong to that school of thought.
