True, Firebird can tend to load pages slower. It is because Firebird loads one image at a time whereas IE will load 4 or 5 at once. There is a way around this
See "Speed up page rendering" and "Pipelining" -- if you implement those into your Firebird installation, it should narrow that load lag by a few seconds.

Also, nobody's mentioned it yet, so I guess I'll go ahead and beat Mr. Russ to a link for this week: http://www.texturizer.net/firebird

Just that CrazyBrowser seems a lot faster loading etc... and its got a nice small interface, where Firebirds tabs are huge which reduce screen size... I am only running this at 1400x1050 resolution, so height is important, and firebird has a huge menu and a lot of crap... then the task bar - about 1/7th the screen is gone, where as in CB its only about 1/10th is taken up...
Maybe someone here feels the same way about firebird? (on both I have the address bar and Links bar visible (they have all my links I need in them)
