Lightning fast? It's not as fast as the optimized bulids methinks -- who knows.

The themes page seems down? Firebird themes work here?

[visionary]

downloading taking forever. only getting 5kb/s :(

[CoolCatBad]

Not fair!

Me still downloading; 56k.

just change firefox in the url to firebird... they haven't updated at the theme site yet. if the themes on that page will not work it will say so... most of them were for the nightly 0.8 builds anyway so most of them do in fact work.

Where's the zip?

[amoeba]

Wow, I'm realizing Firefix is TONS faster than any other build of a Phoenix/Firebird build I've used!

[Kasteo]

Cool.... I didn't download the official fireFox 0.8 yet. Do we have a new icon? I will miss those Firebird icon.

Welcome FireFox :p

[reactionary007]

Awesome work, this is way faster on here than the 0.7 nightly's I was using.

[dreamsINdigital]

Nice update! Awesome browser! :woot: :woot: :woot:

[nazgul]

Hot damn! A Firebird by any other name is just as sweet :woot:

[gaviaal]

I can't get it to work!

I used the FireBird 0.7 Milestone (on XP SP1). Just installed FireFox 0.8, but it won't start. I've tried rebooting, even uninstalling. Does anyone have an idea how i could solve this?

Hmm... how about try a fresh install?.... delete all old Firebird directories(MozillaFirebird, Mozilla, and Phoenix) before install a new Firefox. Some of the old extensions on Firebird 0.7 might not work with Firefox 0.8.

[Dessimat0r]

Its probably to do with extensation that are still installed. Go into C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Application Data\Phoenix\Profiles\<your profile>\<blah>\chrome\chrome.rdf and remove any extentions you installed from it.

lol damn, the FTP is soooo slow (ATM)

Damn this IS news. Downloading now.
