I've been using Thunderbird 0.6 for quite a while, and I love it. It's much better than Outlook Express. Time to upgrade to 1.0, methinks.

Some might find these interesting:
Portable Firefox
Portable Thunderbird
I got a USB drive a couple of weeks ago and loaded both of these on there. Now when I visit my parents (or my wife's parents) I just plug it in and I have my browser and email already set up. It's kind of handy.

I am developing web based applications and we use Fiirefox, Opera, and IE to test our work. Generally, I use Firefox as my primary browser, but occasionally I find web sites that are not W3C compliant that are only viewable with IE. I chalk that up to poorly designed HTML, and coincidently most Micro$oft sites will not work with alternative browsers.
It is a major PITA that
some organizations cannot be bothered with following the industry standards. It makes development that much slower.

Aye. And major sites like Yahoo also couldn't be bothered to properly write a webpage. Many people think there's only Internet Explorer and everything else is "Netscape". It will take a while.
