Yeah, I know – news of this is all over the web, and you all knew it already. Except most of the regular readers are not neccesarily quick on the new version uptake, so here’s a friendly poke – go update to the latest firefox. Just the changes to how tabs work make it worthwhile (you can now drag and reorder them without using a buggy extension). And here’s something fun for you to check out after you’ve updated – an interactive demo using svg.

Dammit, I can’t get the moon to orbit.
I upgraded yesterday. 😉

Hey, firefox 1.5 on my work PC has a big grey bar at the bottom. I can’t get rid of it, and I can’t figure out what it is for. You have any idea?

Hmm. No giant grey bars for me, wierd. Sorry, no ideas offhand, my first guess would be like video drivers causing graphics corruption.

I did some googling and it appears to be a known issue. I have yet to find a fix for it yet. My work system has it, but not home. It appears to be somewhat of a random thing.
I am going to try an uninstall and reinstall clean to see if that helps.

Just in case anyone else has this going on. I have discovered that starting firefox in safe mode eliminates the issue.
Uninstalling and reinstalling did not resolve the problem, so the band aid of safe mode will get you by until a cure is found.
