Last time I looked Firefox was at realease 1.07. Consider trying trying 
Beta 1.5 and pass on your feedback to them.

Shortcuts in Firefox on Windows it's the same method for shortcuts as 
IE.  I don't use either except the OS at work.

In Linux you can easily create a url shortcut.

Are comparing apples to apples, distro and desktop etc ?
