1114404 2010-06-29 22:14:00 Actually I just upgraded to FF 3.6.6. UI seems ever so slightly less responsive than 3.0.4 but I guess the JS and what-not is faster? (I'm on linux btw)

TBH I've found this too, on Win7. Only ever so slightly though.

Love it

Just wish they would improve the Bookmarks organiser.
It is so clunky and un-intuitive !

And I have a problem with it that I cannot get any help on as their help site is too large and overwhelming.

In fact due to the large number of FF users on here, I will post my problem on Press F1 to see if anyone else has the problem.

1114407 2010-06-30 03:15:00 FF 3.6.6 here. I've got chrome installed, but I don't like it. It has real potential though, and, IMO, technically better.

Where's the option for IE 9? :D

Safari? No thanks, I detest apple.

I doubt I'll switch any time soon, I don't use boookmarks, I rely on FF's pop-down menu, all I have to do is hit a letter or two, and click. Can't import that :( Also, I have a couple of add-ons that I love dearly (mostly DownloadHelper). Quite like personas too, have yet to see anything similar on any other browsers, although I'm open to correction.

As for the rushed 3.6.6 update, It was to fix a small issue with launching plugins in separate threads (better crash protection). The timeout was set too low (5 seconds), in a nutshell, it broke farmville (as well as a few other flash programs). The new timeout is 45 seconds. What I want to know was, why wasn't it adjustable?

Except it isn't as customisable as Firefox so blocking the adverts BEFORE rendering won't work.
