It's been like this for a long time now, more than a few builds back...don't have a clue why...

interesting, didn't noticed it was that long, but good to know I'm not the only one.... Maybe someone who knows about the internal workings of dA can shed light on this?

Same here, but only when I press back button.

Some downloads cause Firefox to freeze, usually when the file is almost finished and then scanned for Viruses, this is very annoying and only seems to be causes by exe files.

Yea i find that annoying too, that's why i disable it in about:config 

browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone;false

I've had this issue, one of the first things I ever do is turn of this 'virus scanning' it never seems to actually do anything anyway.

browser.download.manager.scanWhenDone;false

EDIT-- Beaten to it :p

Beta 7 Landed, the new progress bar's are in, seems much faster while browsing and handling multiple tabs than before.

Quite a few things are included in this one.

Landed? I don't believe it has, since these bugs are still blocking it: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/buglist.cgi?quicksearch=blocking2.0%3Abeta7

Anyone has a link to that build of Styltish that's working with the betas? Can't browse the long thread right now. Thank you.

LOL. You realize the link is in the first post on the first page, right?

Edit: oops! I guess the links to stylish and greasemonkey have been removed.

Should be this bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=595683, which is waiting for the dependency bug to be fixed

Since Beta 5, i've seen a graphical bug show up whenever I use the scroll wheel-click browse method. When I click and hold the scroll wheel, and move the mouse up or down to scroll the page, an ugly square shows up underneath the mouse pointer. Anyone else seeing this?

Just confirmed that this bug is fixed in Minefield 4.0b7pre. (Y)

sunspider scores 310 with latest 22/09. We even beat Chrome and Apple :)

Again, these benchmarks depend on the speed of the computer. I assume you compared it to Chrome and Apple on the same computer? How did they compare?

"310" on its own is meaningless.

    • Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations

      By hellowalkman · Posted

      Microsoft released new Defender update for Windows 11, 10, Server ISO installations by Sayan Sen Microsoft releases new Windows Defender update packages very frequently to protect against various newly discovered malware. Once a while every three months or so, the company also pushes out these updates to Windows images (WIM and VHD) and ISOs, that are used to install Windows. Hence with the newest Windows 11 update available via the official MCT tool, you should get these definitions. This update package is necessary as a Windows installation image may contain old, outdated anti-malware definitions and software binaries. Aside from better security, these updates can also provide improved performance benefits in some cases. When a new Windows installation is set up, there may be a temporary security risk due to outdated Microsoft Defender protection in the OS installation images. This happens because the antimalware software included in these images might not be up to date. Thus Microsoft says that these updated definitions essentially help close this protection gap. Microsoft delivered the latest security definitions for Windows images via security intelligence update version 1.445.323.0. The Defender package version is also the same. It applies to Windows 11, Windows 10 ESU, Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021, Win 10 Ent LTSC 2019, Win 10 Ent LTSB 2016, Windows Server 2022, Windows Server 2019, and Windows Server 2016. Microsoft writes: "This package updates the anti-malware client, anti-malware engine, and signature versions in the OS installation images to following versions: Platform version: 4.18.26040.7 Engine version: 1.1.26040.8 Security intelligence version: 1.447.236.0" From Microsoft's security bulletin, we learn that the security intelligence update version 1.447.236.0 was released early last month and adds threat detections for various malware like trojan, backdoor exploits, ransomware, stealers, AutoKMS, and more. For those wondering, the latest intelligence update is version 1.451.297.0 at the time of writing.
