I'm probably the only person who uses Firefox that still runs out of taskbar space

**MC Hammered** · #1 (**permalink**) Mar 08, 07

This was a common occurance when I used IE for a browser so I switched.

So each Firefox window has at least 4 tabs inside of it and I had to close some stuff just to get it back to one taskbar line.

Bad habits die hard I guess. :(

Why do you need to look at all that stuff at once?

**MC Hammered** · #3 (**permalink**) Mar 08, 07

Researching for parts and information.

you really need to look at like 300 pages at once for parts?! jeebus mang.

also, you could just make your taskbar an extra line up by dragging the top of it up. looks better imo, and you can fit more if needed. But I will assume you know that.

Doesn't work well when I have to flip between two windows with engineering drawings to compare specs.

Each window usually represents one company's product line so having them all mashed into one button just doesn't work.

Yeah dood you have alot of prgms running, i cant imagine they are all vital to the current task at hand, if they are.. you are over worked and underpayed.

*Edit*

i also see your quick links arnt shrunk.. id suggest making them into only 3 visable with teh flip up..
