What's new in this release:

Image auto sizing allows a user to toggle between full-sized images and images sized to fit the browser window. To give it a try, load a large image into the browser window or size the window to be much smaller. Now clicking on the image will alternate between auto-sized and full-sized.The feature can be disabled (or enabled) from the Appearance panel in Preferences.
Mozilla Mail's junk-mail classification is mostly complete. Users can now automatically move junk mail to a spam folder.
Users can now "dynamically" switch profiles. To give it a try, from the tools menu select "Switch Profile..."
Find as you type, formerly known as type ahead find, has a new preferences panel (Advanced: Keyboard Navigation).
When installed, Chatzilla now has a normal Mozilla preferences panel.
about:config, the listing of most of Mozilla's preference settings is now editable. Power users can now tweak just about every pref available without opening prefs.js in a text editor. Warning: tweaking some of these prefs may break Mozilla completely. Use at your own risk.
This release of Mozilla marks the kickoff of a research project to apply machine learning to improve the browser's autocomplete feature. The project's first phase needs as many Mozilla users as possible to participate in collecting data. All you need to do is turn on a pref, use this build for daily browsing for a couple of weeks, zip up a data file on your local drive, and submit it online. Please read http://www.mozilla.org/projects/ml/autocomplete/ for more details.

i believe this is the same as was posted in the drivers forum and the drivers seem to be unavailable at the moment so anyone with a mirror for them would be greatly appreciated . [url=http://www.neowin.net/forum/index.php?act=ST&f=17&t=64312&s=189c9a033a748b47035e9b8a7a579fac]link[/url]

They abandoned the SoundBlaster Live!; now the original Audigy too? Makes me really want to run out and buy more products from them.

[/neoquote] Yea for real, I've also learned that if you think your creative sound card is working properly.... DONT INSTALL ANY UPDATED DRIVERS!!!!!! Cuz itll either 1) crash your comp to safe mode, or 2) add features you dont need, and cause conflicts

I've completely lost faith in creative will be looking elsewhere for a new card

#4.1 phobic on 11 Feb 2003 - 13:45

I agree. My next PC will be using another brand.

#5 paesan on 11 Feb 2003 - 13:26

I agree. Creative is getting worse and worse. I have been looking at Terratec audio cards. They may be getting my next sound card purchase. Anyone have any experience with Terratec?

NFORCE2 why would people buy anyother beats me

I've downloaded and installed all the updates successfully except one - Creative Speaker Settings version 1.00.56 seems to be corrupt.

wonder if it works with my SBLive! Gonna try and install later, I'll tell you all how it goes if I remember to.

#8.1 fluxcapacitor on 11 Feb 2003 - 21:29

they work just fine w/ my audigy 1. you have to modify the ctcomp.dat file though. instructions here: http://www.tech-pc.net/forum/viewtopic.php?t=8736&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0

#8.2 Jstphish on 12 Feb 2003 - 07:57

After reading that thread I have decided not to install these derivers simply because the ones I have now (version before this) work perfectly (not popping etc. and no hiss [very good SNR]) and sound phenominal anyway. As many have said before, "if it ain't broken don't fix it." I think I will stick to that grand advice.

Thanks again for the link ... it's much appreciated.

I've already switched to nforce too... hope I never have to switch back.
