Bon Ocho : Mozilla Firefox 2.0

[AltecXP]

i only use chatzilla and have had over 200MB usage

Well I am sure this alpha version will solve all the memory leaks everyone is having. I for one.. even though I use Opera more than Firefox can't wait for this release!

Well I for one have just given up on Firefox. Mozilla wanted to prove something and they did. They got Microsoft off their fat lazy buts and their now working on revamping IE7 (Witch I'm using right now by the way and Opera.)

But as of Lately Firefox has not been getting on the users good sides and if I were Mozilla I'd be wanting to work more on the memory leaks as of now than go sending an alpha of 2.0 out. I'd release a 1.5.1 version of Firefox that fixes alot of the bugs than jumping the gun and getting an alpha released.

If you look at it 1.0 it had it's problems but it wasn't as buggy as 1.5 is. It wasn't till version 1.0.7 that's when the bugs started popping in. And I used the alpha's and the beta's of firefox 1.5 cause they were much more stable and used quiet less memory than 1.07 and the later final release of 1.5.

If Mozilla doesn't get their act togther and actually fix what the users want fixed right now instead of pushing for the release of 2.0 their going to find alot of ex-users like myself get people to switch to browsers like K-meleon or Opera even the future IE 7.0 yes I said it cause IE7 though I'm running the beta doesn't use as much memory, it's got a beautiful new interface (That's what you get with build 5299), it's safer, it actually has gotten some web standards improvements too it and it blocks pop ups galore unlike Firefox right now.

I'm not trying to be a microsoft enthusiast right now but I hate saying this but Microsoft has definately improved since Firefox and other open source applications hit the scene.

So torch me, flame me, burn me at the stake for what I've said but I'm a very very dissapointed user of Mozilla's and until they get the clue to follow what the users want as of now their not going to find much point in keeping up with Firefox when former users start to bash it and kill like I've been done now.

And sorry about the rant and sorry for bashing and flaming

I'd agree with all of that. Since I've been using Firefox, the 1.5 version is nothing but a disgrace .. constant crashes, huuuuuuuuge memory leaks, etc .....

hurry up with IE7 final, microsoft :D

If you have constant crashes with Firefox, you need a new profile and/or to stop using so many extensions.
