739857 2009-01-17 09:51:00 I've just installed the windows 7 beta & I've found a couple of quirks. Wondering if anyone found the same issues.

1. Firefox does not save bookmarks for longer than the browsing session
2. Window Live Messenger does not show conversation windows. I can see them in the little preview when I hover over the dock, but I can't activate the conversation window

Thats the joys of being beta - got bugs, unfinished product.


Edited: What version of FF are you using - just fired up W7 - installed FF 3.05, bookmarked PF1 - rebooted and its held the Book mark fine. Try bookmarking in IE - if it holds it OK its more than likely a FF problem, not W7.

739863 2009-01-17 14:13:00 The beta was good while it was installed. I only had it for 1-2 weeks

I have no idea, never used Vista. I've never installed it
