    this web browser is great, it keeps the amount of data reached before the loading failure, so when you refresh or try to reload you resume from the amount which was lastly loaded, the firefox doesn't have the same feature. but it misses tow very important features that the firefox has these are the automatic spell check which the firefox performs and the ( downthemall ) download manager which enables pausing the download operation in case that you want to cut the connection and it is a really useful feature which enables you to download as much as you want of data with out having to stay connected to the internet until the download is finished.if we could combine these two features with those which the opera has it will be the best web browser which we've ever known, you can notice what i said in the transfers tab which appears when you press a link to download some thing, there isn't any pause option and when you close the browser you are notified that you are going to lose the data which you are trying to download.

    best wishes
