    Firefox 3 RC

    Release candidate is out now and I installed it on my main PC. I uninstalled version 2, installed version 3 into the same dir and it re-imported all my passwords, favorites everything. And so much faster... it's kick ass.

    Re: Firefox 3 RC

    ff3 is much nicer definitely but i had to uninstall it and go back to ff2 'cos most of the add-ons that im using are not compatible with ff3 yet especially the megaupload add-on

      Re: Firefox 3 RC

      Coincidentally I was just about to look for an FF3 thread in here. Just installed it, keeping my FF2, running different profiles.

      Some sites load up faster, some feels the same. Maybe overall rendering has sped up, but the ones that feel the same are limited by my connection.

      Yeah most of my extensions don't work well with this which sucks

      I got pics and video. But I will upload them in the morning. I need to smoke this nice phat joint and just close my eyes and replay the amazingness in my head.

        Oh, I know how to use command line to create a shortcut in windows so FF starts with a specified profile, but any ideas how to do it on the mac??

        [Found a workaround!]

              Yeah, but you can force your existing extensions to work with FF3. There's a config hack, or you can install an extension called nightly tools or something.

                wow, you guys go deep with these programs. I didn't bother uninstalling the previous program. I just install the new one and leave it at that.

                  ^I'm running nightly builds that are probably more prone to fucking everything up so don't wanna risk losing my bookmarks and all the extensions after setting them up the way I want them

                      Nah, nightly build are versions of FF3 that're most up to date as they're compiled every night based on any modifications or bugfixes to the work-in-progress code.

                        there's a bug with the beta/release candidates right now which will make FF unstable if you install FF 3 in the same directory as FF 2 IF you don't uninstall FF2 before installing FF3.

                          boy they must be hard at work on the FF3 RCs. I just downloaded it at work (3 days after installing it at home) and the interface has definitely gotten a face-lift. Of course unless it somehow magically installs a diff skin on XP vs. Vista.

                          Though the one on XP does look a lot better AND [ms] loads like a SCREAMER on FF 3

                              was reading my macworld mag the other day and they said right now people are using FF for the distribution of viruses more that actual IE nowadays. And Safari has the least of them all...but i still say that is from most people not liking it enough to switch from FF.
