If you guys have just recently downloaded Firefox 1.5 beta 1, use a branch or trunk nightly build and you hate the way the new menus look...this extension is for you. Thanks to a bunch of folks over on mozillazine.org forums, we have put together this extension to bring back the classic menus, this is especially nice for all the Windows 2000 and below users and users of XP non-luna themes.

Download link

if the link isn't working copy and paste the link into the browser and hit enter. For some reason the link isn't triggering the install notification for me.

just copy the profiles directory under your account folder\Application Settings\Mozilla, it contains everything.

Also, anyone using this new build, can you try file:///G:/Web/TidyUI/supposed_firefox_exploit.xhtml

apparently it will crash Firefox 1.0.6 on windows and linux, and 1.5 Beta 1, but everybody i have gotten to try it, it doesnt crash it.

just interested.

Can someone tell me what's that extension which lets you backup your profile?

Thanks

I use THIS ONE.

I am using the Test Build 4 right now. Once you install it, go to the options and set it to back up the files you want.

A couple days ago, testing the nightly builds (which I've been doing for a while now), I started getting random crashes of the browser on Linux, and it's still happening with the final beta 1 release. Closing tabs sometimes causes it to crash as well. Damn. Not even a new profile prevents it.

Would like to say that over at TEM they are starting to update extensions. So be patient use the workarounds or just wait a little while (before installing this beta) and most extensions should be updated soon. Just keeping you posted.

This is posted elsewhere in the Mozilla (Gecko) forums, Just wanted to post it here too, so all would know.
