    nice, but 115 ESR used too much RAM on video streaming sites (2-3GB!),
    so I switched to:

    https://github.com/e3kskoy7wqk/Firefox-for-windows-7/releases/

    currently 143... RAM usage back to normal, no problems since March.

    ciao...

    haven't seen one.

    There's another (Vista/Win7) project called r3dfox on github and Sourceforge. On Sourceforge there's even a recent WinXP version.
    Not tried yet.
