Works great for me! RC1 was a problem which kept causing FF to close, no longer in this build !

(Y) I better hurry up and replace my RC1 build then. :heart: firefox.

FYI: Firefox 2.0 RC2 is now available on autoupdate. Go to Help --> Check for Updates to get updated.

I like a lot of the changes they made to the Mac version visually, but the background color reminds me of Windows 98. Come on Mozilla, just throw a pinstripe behind the back, forward, etc. and lighten the color a bit on the bookmark bar. At least try to fit into Os X.

I tried firefox 2 for a while, but went back to 1.5 b/c most of the extension did not work. I like what I saw in firefox 2. Now people needs to get the extensions working with 2.0

[Yochanan]

Which extension? My extensions are all working fine. Some extensions just need the version number bumped in it's install.rdf, but some will need a compatibility update. Most extension authors are working on them currently. If yours does not, contact the author if there's no info on the extensions web page.

Seeing as how stable RC2 is, I'd certainly think so.

I don't know what extensions you use, but I know for me, which includes some of the most popular ones, they have now all been updated for use with 2.0.

yea all my ideal extensions are compatible with firefox 2. Firefox 2, works soooo gooood. Way better then 1.5

[Yochanan]

Oops, nevermind.

Firefox alerted me to the new build and automatically installed it (I love that feature :) ) no bad, not much is noticeably different although I did notice some of the websites I visit that were broken in Firefox 2.0 are working properly now, is good so far (Y)

[neostyle]

used a newer build ( a nightly that is ) and than using rc2 feels a lil strange . but that rc2 build in contrast to others feels like a final . :D

amazing work mozilla team .... :)

last time i downloaded firefox 2 (i think it was beta) I wasn't able to transfer all my settings from my current firefox to the new one.

is it possible to do that on the new firefox?

[Pink Floyd Veteran]

I am trying it right now. Real good so far. I've never been able to make aspell to work with opera and spelling correction is awesome in Firefox!

Gonna have hard time to decide again which will be default between opera and firefox haha (N)
