I'm considering switching to Firefox on my WinXP box.

Pros? Cons?

Totally Firefox. It's pimptastic for two major reasons:

1) Tabbed browsing: you hit control-t and you have a second tab inside the same window. You can have as many of these tidy tabs as you want. Even better, you click hold down the control button when you click on a link should you want to open that in a separate tab instead of the same screen or a pop-up window. Rawk! I find that I leave a few tabs around so that I can refer back to a piece of data days later without reloading. Great, eh?

2) Built-in pop-up blocker.

So yeah, totally. Satisfaction guaranteed or your money back. Isn't free software wonderful?

How do you get the tabs to survive after you quit the browser?

They don't. There is an extension (I can't remember which one right now...) that will save your tabs in case of a crash, but if you close Firefox normally, all the tabs go too.
