I think you will find it has more to do with targeted content than to tell you where you are!

Firefox allows me to add things to it, some I can't be without now, I know Firefox got it's faults, like being slow to start up, but I think it is the best browser out there at the moment.

Amen to that -- I don't know of any other browser where you can add a feature to translate Japanese text just by hovering the cursor over it (though obviously you still need some knowledge to be able to piece it together, which fortunately I do tongue). Until they have something similar available for another broswer, I'm a Firefox man.

Though I'd be a 64-bit Firefox man if stupid Adobe would hurry up and make a 64-bit version of Flash, so I wouldn't have to do without YouTube. I thought 3.5 would be the ticket, what with its built-in media-playing feature, but the 64-bit version of the release candidate doesn't do Flash frown

Fair enough. I don't use many addons, but the ones I do I find useful, like Delicious, no script and a couple of others.

I tried the beta, but some of my add ons did not work, I also found it was slower to start. I will stay with version 3 until I go back to Xp and then go back to Version 2, which I think was the best Firefox.

Are you aware Firefox version 2 is no longer supported by Mozilla? It has known security vulnerabilities in it, and Mozilla are not going to fix them:
