I just got this one the way I like it.
It will keep all your settings and everything when you upgrade.  Except for extensions it deems incompatible like: -Google photo saver -Google settings -AVG safe search -AVG security toolbar  |

They'll be updated soon enough, but if you absolutely can't wait, (like me  I have 85+ that I am used to using all the time...) there is this extension that can force enable them to be compatible. Some when forced to be compatible can mess things up though, (most notably themes and toolbars) so if that happens you can just disable them one by one until you find out which one is causing the problems and then just keep that one disabled until a compatible version is released. |

Anyone else find the new easter egg? (Same one that was introduced in the Beta's and RC's) |

In Firefox's address bar type in: "about:robots" (without the quotes) and hit enter. Ahh, found it.
I did mention no "google"ing, right?  |

Installed yesterday. Other than some additional eye-candy, I remain unconvinced it's much better than its predecessor. It also doesn't seem to play as well with work's firewall and despite my setting it to clear my private data when I close, it doesn't, nor does it appear to clear my private data when I manually command it to. Perhaps after a couple of days I'll be really wowed, but I currently remain tepid.

I really haven't noticed a difference either. Don't get me wrong, I like Firefox but put me in the "meh" camp. |

I actually have noticed it much faster.
Quirky on some of the stuff I do, but over all the same, except for the speed loading pages.

Okay, I figured out the problem with clearing personal data, but it's still not entirely cooperating with the firewall at work. My tepidness has been upgraded to room temperature.

Try using Firefox in it's Safe Mode for a while and see if the problems still happen. If they go away then the problems is something in your extensions/settings. Start > All Programs > Mozilla Firefox > Firefox (Safe Mode). |
