I did not un install and it caused problems with the themes not updating correctly. After i uninstalled and reinstalled it all worked correctly.  |

| It's great, but a lot of the addons I had didn't work with it which was a shame! |

Bloody hell... I've got that as my homepage and they don't even tell you what version is out. The old page was better. So... is it worth updating yet?

| The only new thing I saw was the ability to have XML feeds into your bookmarks which does seem pretty cool! |

The jury is still out here - 0.93 was a b!tch to load. I hope this is better. I really like FF, but when it's inactive for a while (minimized), switching back to it is a real slug to refresh/redraw the screen. Especially when you've got 10 tabs open like I usually do.

Oh, and check out http://renegademinds.com - http://renegademinds.com on the front page - I've got banners to click through to download and promote FF. Check it out and add the banners to your own sites to help promote FF. Once you click through you'll understand - see the program set up to help promote it. Yeah~! More competition for IE :) I friggin' hate IE's crap with CSS... IE can't CSS anything right. ------------- http://renegademinds.com/" rel="nofollow - Renegade Minds - Guitar Software http://renegademinds.com/Default.aspx?tabid=65" rel="nofollow - Slow Down Music |
