I came across this browser on lifehacker.com. It's a firefox clone that uses all of your current firefox add-ins, but it's supposedly faster. I installed it and ran it and it looked exactly the way firefox does, including all of my bookmarks and history being there........I didn't have to do any more work.
I figured I would try to get some feedback here at WC. My personal opinion, I think it is indeed faster. According to Lifehacker.com:
"Windows: If you're a devotee of Firefox's add-ons and features but
would like just a tad more operation speed, Pale Moon might be perfect,
at least for a trial run. The custom and extension-compatible Firefox
build seems just a bit snappier.
It's a relative measurement, of
course, to note that Pale Moon, built and compiled specifically for
Windows operation, tests out 25 percent
ahead of Firefox in certain SunSpider rendering and scripting
tests. As we've noted in our browser
speed tests, browser testing suites can be subjective, and don't
always translate to real-world experience. Then again, using Pale Moon
for the better part of a morning, I could guess at feeling pages like
Gawker.com and Slashdot loading a tad faster than in Firefox, which I
kept open for side-by-side testing. Pale Moon should work with most of
your extensions, too, and if you install it in a non-portable fashion,
it picks up your existing Firefox profile and runs with it.
Pale Moon is a free download for Windows systems only."
