    I chose to have Mozilla start up with my computer so it would load faster. Suddenly that option has stopped and I see the Mozilla icon when I start it up. Where is the option to have it start up when windowes start? I can no longer find it. Thanks.

    ackerberg,

    That would be in: Edit | Preferences | Advanced
    Enable: Quick Launch

    Thank you Ramona. I did find it after I wrote but I am still mystified how it became inactive.

    I was stopped by what you had said: "Suddenly that option has stopped and I see the Mozilla icon when I start it up." What did you mean? Keep in mind that if you have problems, the instructions say to disable Quick Launch. I don't understand why. Ramona?

    Anyway, although I find that I don't have to stare at the computer as long (it saves 15-20 sec), Quick Launch is in the category of eye candy. I figured that I would save about 6 hrs. in a year, if I open the program three times each day.

    When Quick Launch is enabled most of the browser is loaded in RAM. Try editing a file with Quick Launch open, e.g., deleting the XUL.mfl file. You will receive a warning that the application is in use.
