In FireFox, I just saw an option to re-open the recently closed tabs. (May be you are using it for long time. I switched very recently to FireFox from IE)
I was happy to find this option, because I sometimes accidentally closed an active tab, instead of the other one. Did it happen to you? Did you use this feature?

Hello my Friend,
I've used IE before, but lots of my friend suggest me to use FF3 because it's faster and way more safer than IE. Well, that's true, FF3 also have that re-open the recently tabs like you've mentioned before. And it's great cause it keep the pages we browse and load it again if it accidentally closed. Right now I'm very satisfied with my FF3 and not considering in switching to other browser.
Thanks for bringing this discussion, have a great day :)

I use this often. I always have at least 3-4 tabs open, because I'm such a muti-tasker, and I automatically open new links in tabs. With so many tabs open, I often close the wrong one, especially since I close tabs using the scroll wheel. This feature saves me the pain of regoing to the website I was on.
I just recently switched from Maxthon to FireFox. Maxthon has an easy 'undo' button right on the toolbar, which reloads the tabs you recently closed. Boy, do I have that feature on Maxthon! LOL

Firefox has many other useful options that is the reason it is liked by so many people. Firefox has got many add-ons with these we can really make firefox to work the best, security is also more in firefox so that we can have our emails and passwords safe.

Yes, I also started using Firefox recently (I am having both IE and Fire fox in single system), and like Firefox mainly for that feature. Because we are facing power cut and interruption in internet connection often.In that situation just we can close and resume later. Also, it is having many Add-ons,among which Fox mark is very useful.The bookmarked items in one computer can be retrieved and used in other computer. But the main problem in Firefox is, it is getting crashed very often.

I've used it a few times. It's like when you get an error message and it takes you to your desktop, it gives you a choice of opening a new window or restore previous. It's those little things that make firefox better than IE.

Haven't seen but will now.I find FireFox more frienlier than IE.It is also less prone to virus attacks.
