Yes… I’m on a Mac… and yes… I use Safari. But I still think it’s worth it to check out non-Apple products.

Go to the netscape site and download the installer. when installing it choose firebird from the list of browsers.
if it doesnt show up choose … or whatever and go to the firebird directory and work you way to the plug-ins folder, then install, thats what i had to do.

You make it seem as though this thread is forcing people to use certain browsers… but really it just merely brings forth the name of an alternative browser that might be worth checking out.

I ran the installer, pointed it to the %root%\mozillafirebird\plugins\ directory and it worked fine for me. I used the installer directly from Macromedia’s site. Make sure to close your browser when you run the installer. That helps. =)
Cheers!

I did what Niann did, worked fine for me.
I unzipped the firebird .zip file into my program files directory, then downloaded the macromedia plug-in installer, chose “other” from the browser selection list, then I manually pointed it to the plugin folder of the firebird directory in my program files folder and hit “install”. Worked like a charm.

does anyone else have a keyboard with open/close buttons? Mine used to work fine in Mozilla but they don’t anymore. I’m trying out Opera again(SSSLLLLLLLOOOOOOWWW) and just trying out Avant. It looks pretty good so far and will probably take over Opera’s spot as default. Anyone have any problems with avant?
