Firefox Tweak Guide for Firefox 2.0

The Firefox Tweak Guide has been completely revised for the release of Firefox 2.0. Everything in the guide has been retested, refined, and new tips, tweaks and details of the new features for Firefox 2.0 have been added. I strongly recommend that you start with a fresh install of Firefox 2.0 and then follow the guide from start to finish to get excellent results.

Note: This guide refers to the latest official version of Mozilla Firefox Version 2.0. The guide is designed specifically for those running Firefox on Windows XP, however most of the tweaks in this guide apply to Firefox on other platforms. Make sure to check back regularly for updates.

I have not yet upgraded 2 FF2.0 due 2 compatibility problems of some extensions which i REALLY cant do without(like tab mix plus, etc!)

Hope 2 upgrade only when the dust settles abt all the FF addons for FF2.0!!!
 
most plug ins already have a beta that is compatible with 2.0 . you just need to hunt it down via Google/ the plugin maker's site
