New Firefox 3.0

Postby Mole_J » June 19th, 2008, 8:13 pm

Not sure if it has been posted but Firefox 3.0 has been released. I have not did much with it yet, but it is much faster. Everything loads very quickly. Unfortunately, I have found no way to move over bookmarks. I have to go back and add all my bookmarks. I did have a problem with my bookmarks in the older Firefox, not sure if this is the problem. Also some extensions are not compatible yet. It is definitely worth a download, it is much faster now.

Download here: here

If you have downloaded what is your opinion?

I downloaded it yesterday, and it moved my books over from Firefox 2.0 automatically.

Must of been my old firefox, I had to save the bookmarks in a weird way. None of mine moved over, so I am going back through bookmarking the site I visit often.

Is this with the older Firefox or the 3.0?

The first thing you will notice with 3.0 is it is much quicker than the older Firefox :)

It was at 8 million just 24 hours after the release... you can see it's tapered off now, but they were up to 6,000+ downloads per minute.

I know that Mozilla wanted to break the record of the most downloads in a 24 hour period. Looks like they have done it 8)
