    I've looked everywhere and cant find a 64bit version of firefox 6.0. The one I have downloaded says it is for x86. Is there one available yet?

    I don't think you'll ever find one. Most browsers are x86.

    IE9 has a x64 version. It's faster in some regards, but I think it's got such little support that it's not worth using.

    64-bit Firefox Nightly in general is good - but I don't recommend it for everyday usage - simply because of the lack of other components not yet quite working (Flash comes to mind) smoothly

    cheers ...
