Re: firefox3 beta5

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

less than 30 seconds: http://btjunkie.org/torrent/Firefox-...61b52808f97b46

Haven't tried it yet but plan to, I didn't know they had betas for 3 out yet. Whats new with it?

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

Yeah I just found that too, was second link with google. I thought it was some special hard-to-find leaked beta

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

So whats new/different?

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

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.

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

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.

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

just clicked download

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

did you just click install into your anus you idiot? you have nothing to contribute to this thread. go sit in a corner and die.


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

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

Certainly seems like it is a lot faster, and checking the memory usage proves it's not a hog. Nice

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

First off. Suck my baws.
Second, I likey. Less memory usage and seems to be quicker on its feet. Nice find. Oh yeah, you suck :6

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

yea Im gonna agree this is kind of cool def fast 8)

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

On second thought. This new version uses 42mb of ram whilst my trusty ole version 1.8 only uses 20mb
I think I'll stick with it.

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

you are seriously an idiot.

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

you're projecting all of your anger towards me. Its unhealthy. Here's something to cheer you up pal

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

FF 1.8 = your gay :1

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

just installed and so far me likey pages load 1/9999 seconds faster and it seems a little more competent... worth the install if it doesnt end up crashing like every other beta software ive dnloaded

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

im sure its great but ill wait for the fully tested version comes out.

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

I downloaded it. Running great so far. It is a little zippier. Other than that not much difference. Not digging the back/forward, home, etc etc. Looks like something on one of those Leap Frog things.

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

In a world where everyone tries so hard to be different, the most unique thing you can do is follow the norm.

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

back to work wit you slave

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

had a chance to play with it and so far me likey, much zipper especially when you have a ---- load of tabs/windows open and watching youtube videos, very stable too you guys should try it out

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

You guys are kidding with the liking of this hunk of ----, right?

First of all, the back/foward button is AWFUL. Yes, store it in one spot, brilliant.....No, it's ------- retarded. If I want to go backwards, I want to click on the back arrow and select how far to go back. If I want to go forward, I want to click on the forward arrow and select how far forward I want to go. Sticking it in the same spot is ridiculous. The two different sized arrows blows pretty hard too.

Secondly, every time I start to type a web address I get startled as the results pop out and the different sizes and how they are underlined. It makes me close the application immediately.

As for the speed, seems about the same or slower. As for the resources, 55mb for one window, no tabs is about 20mb more than it uses with the old version so again, how does this use less resources? I trust the professionals for testing that, but my rudimentary tests don't agree....

I'll stick with v2.whatever.

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

Yeah I agree with pretty much everything you said. Only difference I noticed was it loaded up faster and when having a bunch of tabs open it loaded the pages quicker and didn't lag between switching tabs.

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

DONT DOWNLOAD THE BETA VERSION, made two of my computers start freezing... worked good for a week or so and started making my computers freeze... trired uninstall and no dice, had to do a restore and now everything is all good, download at your own risk

Re: firefox3 beta5
 

then your ---- is fubar'd to begin with. mine hasnt had one issue at all. i think its even better than 2.X of the regular firefox. i run no virus scanning software at all, and have had no issues at all. its all in the user and what the user does and what sits are visited. i was playing mugen fighting sim earlier and it crashed because of the graphical interface, while i had firefox downloading a 4 gig file. no lag that way either.

im with Kain though on this one, much better. oh and backspace works better as a back button if your quick on the hotkeys!!
