Firefox Taking Over
There has been a lot of articles lately talking about Firefox and the amount of resources it likes to consume. I have been fighting through this more and more it seems like. For me, it likes to take 200MB+ of ram and slowly sucking away processor power. At least I have 2GB of ram so that side of it doesn’t really matter. What is your experiences with Firefox?

I’ve installed FF for those rare occasions when IE7 doesn’t work or if I’m developing a page. IE7 is my preferred browser - especially with the IE7Pro add-on installed - http://www.ie7pro.com
My biggest annoyance with FF is that it takes over my PC. I have IE7 set as the default browser - yet programs like GoogleTalk, IntelliType Pro (for my keyboard shortcuts), etc all open pages in FF instead of IE7. HTM and HTML extensions are registered for IE7, so either the developers of the above-mentioned programs need to work out how to program properly or FF is being deceptive somewhere.
