just download it and use it. it doesn't go on a memory control rampage no matter how much your viewing or how long its up. it also is twice as zippy.

it also does more neat nifty lil features in it aswell.

Yeah found an article, first test it was the fastest browser out, the other test it was second fastest.

I hope the memory issues were fixed, firefox 2 would crash after a shitton of windows were open and I know I'm not short on ram. Eventually it would have 75mb+ of memory being used even if it was only a simple page.

I hope the download resume actually works on this one. On the version I have now, when I click resume it just says "complete" and puts the halfass incomplete file somewhere.

Will try it out when I get home.

yes, it uses ram much better than firefox 2.0 its almost retarded if you watch the resource monitor. it just stays in control.
