I'm using Iceweasel 1.5.0.7 on Ubuntu Dapper 6.06 (64-bit). My experience with Iceweasel has been a positive one for the most part - it's faster and it is compatible with firefox plugins and extensions. However, there are a few rough edges I'd like to see ironed out:
#1: Lack of icon. I'm fine with the icon on my launcher but I haven't been able to get it on the window (top left corner). I've been told this is controlled by the program itself. #2: Attempting to open HTML files with Iceweasel produces an error message and a bunch of tabs with random websites. Firefox, on the other hand, works properly.
#3: In the download manager, the "open" button (for files) and the
"Open Containing folder" button (right click on a file) don't work.
"Remove" and "Properties" on the other hand do work.
#4: Occassionally I will get a file that automatically opens instead of saving like I want it to, here's an example: http://prdownloads.sourceforge.net/e2fsprogs/e2fsprogs-1.39.tar.gz?download
#5: When opening downloaded files with file roller and similar applications the normally very polished GTK theme is not present. Instead I end up with something like this:

). They look much nicer then the default firefox widgets.
Despite those minor issues I do like Iceweasel and will continue to use it as my default browser. Keep up the great work guys. :)
