Cool... Any main differences?

Its pretty cool but nothing noticeable to the normal firefox, but that is probably because I upgraded from beta to aurora.

Ah thought so. Prefer to stick to the normal Firefox and customize it... Seems more stable.

What version do you run? Might have to take a look at getting the normal firefox.

The most recent. It's 8 or 9 I think ;)

Yeah thanks heaps hawk. I dunno, I guess I win cos you have to give permission to pinpoint anything.
you still win, hawk's points apply to internet connections in general, there is no way to pinpoint a person's location from their wifi router (unless if you are like next door, in which there would be no point)

Yippee!!

Google actually track you while you are on FF.

I'm running Firefox and Ghostery tells me that the following are tracking me (I have turned all off):

Google Adsense
Google Analytics
(And, not sure what this is) Tribal Fusion

They track you because Monty wants them too.

Adsense, as the name suggests, serves ads.
Analytics would be on most websites with Google's being the most widely used. Provides you details stats on visits to your site.

Q can I have a link to Ghostery?
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ghostery/?src=userprofile

Strongly advise you use Firefox. May be a touch slower than Chrome but It's way more powerful.

You can get Ghostery for Chrome as well :P
Not that there's much point seeing as I'm not bothered by google tracking me.
If I was I certainly wouldn't be using chrome :o
