that everything is normal. im using firefox v1.5

Not here...

Are you running Tabbrowser Preferences?

Install it and you can control how tabs behave.

A small trick worth trying too:

When the wole window becomes a little bit smaller, as you say, drag the right low corner to make it even smaller, about 1/4th of the screen.

Now close Firefox in File > Exit.

Reopen Firefox and maximize it using the top right corner square. Close again in File > Exit.

Test.

then close, open, mazimize, close, open, test...

IE is much faster and never crases 99% compatibilities with every single website and im using firefox that is full of bugs
why because firefox has in the top right something to seach for google or ebay and because you can bookmark the websites
bellow the address bar, if i just could have that in IE ill be super happy something like myie2 has

actually MyIE2 0.9.27 lite is a very powerful thing

I have a totally different opinion, but I would say every user has his own.
