The Fastest Firefox for Windows: Firefox Wonder Edition 1.0

It does feel faster. One question though: why is it based on v1.5.0.7, and not any of the v2.0 versions?

I regularly use the dictionary add-ons, and they only run on v2…

This is the message I get: "United States English Dictionary 2.0.0.6 could not be installed because it is not compatible with Firefox 1.5.0.7"

The dictionaries can be found here:
https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/browse/type:3

Thank you Frank

I will fix that problem.

The feed works fine now. Thanks.

Iam a very recent convert to firefox(just three days)after using FIREFOX V2.0 for a day,I found this blog and downloaded and tried WONDER EDITION.Initial response is very impressive and promising.Infact I have added extensions like eSnips,full google toolbar,delicious bookmarks,clipmarks and all these ,so far ,are working o.k.& the browsing is certainly faster as compared TO VERSION 2.0(which I have uninstalled in order to prevent any conflict(although most unlikely),just in case.

MY query is about the reminders I get about the upgrade availability,(I have automatic upgrade option turned on for firefox and extensions)Will the extensions stay stable If I turn off the firefox upgrade option?What will happen in case the extensions get upgraded?Will we loose the faster browsing performance if this edition gets upgraded to version 2,0( & later to version 3.0 as the posts indicate is likely)

lastly ,I rememder having executed just one file (wonderedition.exe)& that already is giving faster results.Do I have to execute the second file(wonderedition_1.exe)because once I tried,it started another instance of wonderedition(which I removed because of not being sure of what's happening)
Also when I check the priorityof firefox.exe inthe task manager,surprisingly it is at NORMAL(but i observe faster speeds compared to ver2.0 & ofcourseIE) so can changing the priority to HIGH(manually or by executing _1.exe file ?) give even better results?pl advice as Iam a newbie just sold out to the cause of FIREFOX WONDER EDITION.

Is there any marked difference as far as resource consumption goes-wonderedition vs.version2.0 ?

Overall ,I W'D SAY ITS A GREAT IMPROVEMENT ACHIEVED AND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK.

THANKS A LOT FOR wonder edition

Thks a lot for answering(though partially)my queries,DARIO !
As i said earlier,Iam a newbie so I have lots of queries,especially for a new thing like Firefox WONDER EDITION.Is ther a seperate forum to address these or this comments space will also serve as queries space ?
Anyway,Adding to my last comments,I have since then installed couple of more extensions and about six of user scripts and so far it has been a good experience using wonder edition-so thks for that once again
Now the query part-Inthe directory
there are two executables- .exe and _1.exe.Do we have to execute both of these or execution of any one is sufficient?If anyone.then which one is better?Iam asking this because my FWE folder is almost 70 MB and there are files as wellas identical files with _1 ending.(there is readme.txt and readme_1.txt or .log and _1.log files) Is it supposed to be like that or I might have messed up by executing both the .exe as well as _1.exe file .Please elaborate

Also there are uninstall.exe and uninstall_1.exe files there.Why do we need these when ther are no installations done as iam using the standalone version(using it though for desktop pc with win xp sp2)and not strictly the portable way.

Thks a lot DARIO ! for your prompt reply and guidance

I'll need lot of queries answered because for being able to spread the good word around about FWE,I have to be crystal clear about issues:

When you say 1st FirefoxWonderEdition.exe.hopefully you mean
just FirefoxWonderEdition.exe obtained after extraction of self extracting 7zip file(which I got by downloading from here)

If that is so then I definitely messed up something and w'd like to delete the present working instance of FWE and start all over again.It will be a learning experience for me,as removing and setting up FWE is quite simple affair,even for newbies likeme.

Nonetheless,I need help to safely remove all traces of FWE -pl.tell me if my planned course of action is correct;
1.I delete the Directory FirefoxWonderEdition
2.Remove all traces of Firefox in windows directories of Programme files,application data and local settings
If anything else needs to be done,please indicate so,so that I can start FWE on a fresh clean slate

I have joined the forum TECHDO and w'd post problems there also,as these arise.Mean while pl. give a link /reference to more info material about FWE.(especially if there are any tutorials in simple layman's terms
Thanks a lot once again….

Hi there!
I had posted some problems being faced ( after deleting old instance of FWE and starting a fresh instance of FWE )in the forum ,but its not shown anywhere over there and clicking forum home is leading to a weird looking object claimed to have hacked it .As I said Iam a newbie with very poor typing skills so it took me me a lot of time to post all that what i wanted to say,but sad it's no where to be seen.Maybe I should resume asking for advice here in this column…..

Hoping that You have retrieved back yhe material being hacked…
