Mozilla Firefox 3.0 RC1


Recommended Posts

This RC1 is great. Can't wait for my favorite Addons to be compatible.

Yes I know , I am running on my other machine. It is a vast improvement over 2.0.

I know, it seems to load pages faster and just feels snappier in performance. Plus it uses less memory. Great browser.

If you manually run the FF updater, its already detected. Just an FYI :) Only problem I have is that sometimes when you click the bookmarks button, it brings up the bookmark dialog instead of showing you your bookmarks. Wish they would fix that as its annoying as hell!

I'm glad the team is making progress...

But its still damn ugly on the mac (even if its not in line with the general display style) :/

It looks ugly on Vista.. The icons could've been better considering they were making it streamlined with the OS

My auto-update from beta5 didn't work (apparently that will work on Monday?) so I went and installed RC1 manually. A bunch of my add-ins and themes no longer work but I can do without that stuff for a bit.

Yes! this is the only thing I don't like about this version, otherwise it's a major improvements over 2.x (Y).

I needed to warn somebody and I needed my Clippings extension.

Slightly customized form letters, FTW!

What, you go looking for evidence of airbrushing?

Na but small, images on websites zoom in quite well with the image zoom extension. I"ve been using this extension for as long as I can remember.

I just upgraded from Beta 5 to RC1.

The UI has been updated. The bookmarks manager was updated to the Vista UI look. It wasn't there in B5... was it?

I'm not sure if this was in Beta 5 but I love the new easy restore feature in the Bookmarks manager. Easier than manually renaming my file when the bookmarks file got corrupt.
