if your still running FF 3.5.3 you may want to do a update. for what ever reason I didn't receive my automated pop up for 3.5.4 and didn't know this version was out had to do it manually. Any who just thought Id pass it along for those that use the browser as well.

BTW you can always click help then about to see what version you are using. For those that don't/didn't know.

| Is the newer version more stable than FF3? I downgraded to FF2 to as I was tired of the constant problems with 3. |

I dug this up for you and every one else to read if they so like.
http://news.cnet.com/8301-30685_3-10385082-264.html
What’s New in Firefox 3.5.4 / Release Notes
Firefox 3.5.4 fixes the following issues:
* Several security issues.
* Fixed several stability issues.
* Added the ability to re-submit crash reports (bug 378528)
* After using Clear Recent History some SSL sites would not load all images and styles without pressing reload (see bug 480619)
Please see the complete list of changes in this version. You may also be interested in the Firefox 3.5.3 release notes for a list of changes in the previous version.
....................................
I noticed a difference in the windows task manager. A decrees to 157MB 1-5 % CPU usage . Down from 300MB 20% +. Thats with one tab running on both those figures.
Wish I can tell you more but I had just upgraded, Therefor I can't give any solid statements on using it.

I successfully updated to 3.5.3 through that automated pop up! It was seamless so I'm surprised anyone didn't get that message. The update looks good to me. |

Got rid of that fast!!!! I hate how it hides the tabs from view and you can't see the other pages unless you open them from the "bar" on top of the page. I'd rather have the tabs. I found it slow to load browser based games I play and it was having problems loading pages and hanging. I downgraded again to FF2. I'm done with upgrades. I'm not even going to entertain the thought of doing it again.  |

one can always switch between tabs using CTRL TAB "in any browser mac im not sure how that works". I haven't seen any lags of pages on my end except for AB home page loading Google Analytics which does lag portions of the site from time to time. That's a Google issue not AB's. Well you can always give 3.5.6 when it comes out.

Pretty vague question. What doesn't "pop up"?

Ah, Lonny said at his 1st post that the pop-up for the upgrade didn't pop-up (wasn't opened by the browser).
Though nevermind it just did ! |

| I don't know what's up with my firefox, it keeps updating, reverting, and what not. I think it has self acceptance issues. |
