A few complaints to date that I can see -
I use my Links as a Taskbar for regularly accessed sites (Banking, research
links etc., abt 12 of them), they all showed as the standard Firefox HTML
icon with no way that I could find to revert them to my custom icons.
On uninstall, my Google shortcut in Quicklaunch (which I always use to open
the browser) kept on trying to open C:Mozilla, even though the properties
said http://www.google.com.au/advanced_search?hl=en
By opening IE, going to the above link, then dragging it to the Desktop, it
still did and said the same.
On trying to rectify the above, I found the Registry still full of
Firefox/Mozilla keys (plus a live and well Gopher folder & keys), and
including a few which had overwritten IE as the main HTM, HTML (etc.) keys,
or pushed IE down in the pecking order with Firefox as No.1 - a complete
mess.
Finished up having to do a System Restore.
