I hate it.. I downloaded it yesterday and I wish I could switch back.
People who like it... tell me what you like about it and maybe I will change my mind. LOL

I wish I could tell you I like it. FF3 has crashed on me more in the month I've been using it than IE ever did. It's still better than IE, so I suffer.

I love it. though I did hate it on my old computer because it was just too slow to deal. I couldn't run FF and PS at the same time, which sucked since those are pretty much always open for me. so I downgraded 'til I got my new computer for thanksgiving (er, xmas... santa dropped it off a bit early, LOL).

I dont like that I can't clear the part where you type in web addresses. Im not doing anything bad but I want to clear it out incase he sees what Im looking at buying him for Christmas and such. I went into Tools, delete browsing history yadda yadda but it is still there!

Make sure Saved Forum and type data or whatever is checked to make sure it deletes all of that..I think that's a "feature" of firefox though to remember..it remembers everything and sometimes it's annoying (typos that come up lol)

i think i didn't like it when I first updated, didn't like how it looked (although I liked it better than how IE looks). now I am used to it. But it crashes a lot on me.

No problems here. I can't compare, as I've only used this version.

No complaints here... I think I recall it took a few days to get used to it though

I haven't had an issues with it. BUT one of my extensions is giving me a hard time and never did before. The download status bar. A box pops up with all the d/l's and I can't get the dang thing to go away. :(

I don't have a problem with it unless I load too many tabs. I drop Entrecards and usually have 10 tabs open at a time. At least one of them, if not more, almost always has music, wihch slows everything down or a video which does the same. I'm not sure that is FF3 problem & not just my computer. But it has seemed more noticeable that FF3 has been using a significanly larger portion of my CPU when I have a bunch of tabs open, than it used to

I've had a ton of problems with FF3, too. I get "not responding" messages all the time now (it used to only happen once in a blue moon). When that happens I have to shut down FF3 completely. I usually end up just using IE to open whatever site is causing me trouble.

I've had FF3 for as long as it's been out, both at work and at home, and I've had no problems at all. So weird.

I didn't like it when I first got it (when it first came out) but I got used to it, especially once they reeleased my favorite theme for it, lol. I don't remember it crashing much...though I know it WOULD and tick my off, but it hasn't done it since I got my new computer, except when I tried to install the Microsoft.net framework. Right now I'm having issues with it because it won't keep my cookies, and I can't figure out how to fix it, lol...kinda making me carzy, though!
