optimized Firefox browser Pale Moon is a Firefox clone that has been optimized for for Windows Operating Systems with current, high performance processors. It looks identical to the standard Firefox browser and supports Firefox extensions, themes and identities. All your existing extensions, bookmarks and settings are imported during the installation, so, except for the logo, you won`t notice any difference in functionality. What you may notice however is a difference in speed due to the optimized code which will results in faster scripting and page rendering as well as (slightly) lower memory consumptions. Pale Moon is based on the Firefox source and offers the same levels of security. The program supports most Firefox features with the exception of accessibility features and parental control features which have been disabled for performance reasons.

Oh so much speedier! 5 stars by claudchu51
Frustrated by ever slower FF (yet every time I try to upgrade from 3.6 + version installation crashes), I've been recreating multiple browsers to protect myself against the day when FF won't work at all for me. This little alternative is wonderful. It is the fastest of any of the others I've used, very stable, and still downloads the FF addons I love. I'm using PM 3.6.28 v. on Vista and if I remain as impressed as I am now I will make it my default browser. Recommended for older Windows systems that can't take FF's attempts to be cutting edge. Take that FF! showShow review details
Migrated 5 stars by gimpguy (Read all my 655 reviews)
I was trying out Pale Moon when it began and have tried it on and off. Recently I installed it and haven't found the need to go back to Firefox. I would like to mention that it works with download managers very well, as when Firefox rolls out yet another version, most things need time to catch up and quit working, not the case here. Pale Moon is very stable, fast and does everything Firefox does (at least for my needs). There may be some sites that require Firefox or IE still so I wouldn't toss out either browser yet but they will remain dormant on my system until needed. Pale Moon has always worked well and currently, it's very up to par and at the very least, give it a try, you won't lose out. showShow review details
