Don't to that to me, Dave

Ever since I switched to OS X, I've been using Safari. Safari is a fine browser, really it is... except for its incredibly annoying tendency to just “go away” into some kind of 100% CPU-use loop for seconds at a time. I have no idea what it is going, but it has rendered it nearly useless.

So, I'm switching to Firefox. But where is the system- (or at least account-) wide preference to change your default browser? In Safari, just to make you feel guilty about bagging it.

Firefox is great, but if you're nervous you may be able to run both until you feel you can let Safari go...

Cheers,

The option to change default browser is actually within Safari's own general preferences. I get the same problem (the latest version seems very unstable) but I prefer Omniweb to Firefox.

Whoops! Sorry, I didn't read the last line in your entry properly. Too much wine and a short attention span I'm afraid : )
