FireFox 3 Beta

Kornowski · 05-12-2008, 02:42 PM

Anybody using it?

I'm using it now, it's awesome!

Yep, I'm using it at the moment. Beta 5. Should be nice when the final version is released

I have been using it for about 3 months now. Works great, but still is kinda buggy with flash occasionally.

I saw it the other day, how much is the GUI changed? All I noticed was the drop down menu for the URL bar.

Yup! I'm using Beta 5... I like it a lot... the only thing I don't like is that the FF2 plugins and themes don't work.

i like the new back and farward buttons.

seems much more reliable than the older version i was using....it kept crashing

the old firefox's couldnt do that could they? or is it just me? lol... they never seem to be able to reconnect to a download.

Firefox 3 looks awesome just downloaded it after seeing this thread. only difference i can tell so far is slightly different GUI.

well i dont think they could....unless they could with some sort of addon but this new FF is great.
