Windows 7 recovers gracefully about 99.9% of the time without any need for task manager. Just click on the close window "x" button on any "Not Responding" app and Windows 7 will offer to close or restart it, (your choice) and even will do a quick search to see if it can find a solution (mostly doesn't, but nice…

Actually, if used correctly in combination with "tags", the Awesome Bar is one of my favorite features of Firefox. Browsing bookmarks is so 1990s... Tags and the Awesome Bar FTW!

I recommend a "clean" install of this beta. I did an overlay (update) install of 7048 over the top of 7000, and ran into some weird anomalies.
