I doubt it will be fixed this late because a lot of bugs have been moved to FF 5 just to get 4 out the door by end of march maybe.

Yeah, I agree. Just wish it would be fixed, as it's a big letdown for me. Can't believe it's going to be default on the browser. Almost unbearable to read on a lot of websites.

I don't know about you, but for me fonts with or without HA have almost no difference.As someone said with HA they are a bit blurry, but just a bit.And are not "Unreadable".In fact i seem to like the HA fonts more now than the font without HA.Some people are just too picky and want everything. Like a saying goes "You can't have everything".

That type of font looks terrible. They should at least have it so you can have how the font used to be on Fx 3.6 without bugs on that even. I'm not a fan of regressions like this.

Can't stand the custom interface Firefox uses on Mac OS X. It tries to look and act like an application that uses native APIs, but clearly it still doesn't.

Firefox button on Windows doesn't follow the proper upper right button design either, same with Opera.

I'm confused. On my desktop, every time I reload the session with all tabs, it works normally.

On my notebook, when I click on any time, it reloads before I can use it normally.

Anyone having the same problem?

Your desktop must be faster. Firefox 4 staggers tab loading on a recently used basis, but if the computer is slow or overloaded, it might not end up loading tabs until you click on them (I often get it on my Mac since it only has 2GB of RAM)

Well, yeah, it is. But not so much. I mean, both have 4 GB RAM and Core 2 Duo (I'll upgrade soon) processors. Different models, though. Anyway, thanks for the help!

    • Is your Apple Watch supported? Check the watchOS 27 compatibility list

      I have updated my Series 9 Watch so I assume there is either a mistake in what was said, or as suggested - the new AI feature set isn’t supported on anything other than those listed above.
    • WhatsApp slams Isreali firm, NSO Group, for trying to spy on its users

      By David Uzondu · Posted

      WhatsApp slams Isreali firm, NSO Group, for trying to spy on its users by David Uzondu WhatsApp has come out accusing Israeli cyber-intelligence firm, NSO Group, of deploying a fresh wave of highly targeted "spear phishing" attacks against users, which its security teams successfully thwarted. The Israeli firm, according to WhatsApp, ran this operation like its usual one-click phishing campaigns, trying to get people to click malicious links that lead them to external sites. To coordinate the campaign, the spyware vendor created fake test accounts and groups on the messaging app. WhatsApp said it is sharing the specific malicious domains, ikhwancast[.]com, ghazacast[.]com, and fr24cast[.]com, because potential victims need this data to check if they were targeted across other messaging systems or email platforms. The NSO Group is infamous for creating and selling Pegasus, a military-grade commercial spyware capable of silently compromising smartphones simply by sending a message or placing a missed call via apps like WhatsApp or iMessage. Users do not even have to interact with the incoming notification before the infection takes hold. Once Pegasus manages to break in, the spyware harvests private data, letting operators read private messages, emails, photos, and documents. It also tracks precise GPS locations, records keystrokes, activates the device's camera, and monitors live microphone audio. Independent investigations by cybersecurity watchdogs like The Citizen Lab and human rights organizations like Amnesty International have proven that governments use this software to track humanitarian workers, journalists, diplomats, and political dissidents. These findings directly contradict NSO Group claims that clients use the technology to spy on criminals and terrorists only. In late 2021, the U.S. Department of Commerce added the firm to its Entity List, effectively banning the vendor from buying hardware and software from American tech companies. WhatsApp said in its blog post that the spyware vendor violated a permanent court injunction with this new spear-phishing campaign. This injunction, which took effect in 2025, strictly prohibited NSO Group from targeting WhatsApp and its users. The platform is now asking a federal court to hold the firm in contempt.

      Cool. It definitely needed some work before

      It would be surprising if even 3 year old Apple Watches (and not SE models at that) cannot run watchOS 27. Granted, it doesn't mean it would work as well. We'll see.
