It seems that you're using an outdated browser. Some things may not work as they should (or don't work at all).
We suggest you upgrade newer and better browser like: Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer or Opera

Hmm, I quite like it. I'll probably carry on as I have done up until now. Using Firefox as my 'power browser' for big sessions complete with tab saving, but keeping Chrome registered as my default browser so that when I click links in IM programs and so on Firefox doesn't have to start up and load all my tabs.

I love it.

I like it, but due to incompatibility I am missing about 4 add-ons. I guess I stay with Firefox 3 for now until the add-ons are updated to work with Firefox 4. There are actually alternatives to those 4 add-ons, but I already grow rather attached to them.

My thoughts exactly.

I'm sticking to 3 until I build my new rig.

3 is slow enough on this system as it is. :P

Got lost on reading that one as well.

Being a massive FF fanboy (after something like 7 years of IE ignorance) I felt like they basically forced me to use it the way the devs wanted to, that is, with all the good stuff disabled. Also, whose idea was it to get rid of the status bar? Because that person should be shot.

Font smoothing is evil.

I like Chrome a lot and this new version of FF just gives me more reasons to stick with it. All I missed from FF was AdBlock Plus and Chrome got it a while ago.

Me too. Isn't this trend just hellishly annoying? ¬_¬

I hate "mystery meat" browsers. I do not wish to have to turn something that I need to be on by default. Screw you, Chrome, for this minimalist BS.

Well, there is "status bar". Just hover your cursor over something and in the left bottom corner some info will appear. Same thing when it comes to loading pages.

Which one uses the least amount of memory when in operation?

I dislike the UI and that and the add-ons are the only thing i care about in a browser. My connection is terrible so any improved speed doesn't really matter so i'll probably be sticking with FF3 for a long while.

I like FF4, for the first time I'm switching from IE.

On install it found some prehistoric version of itself and inported the settings, so I got an UI that looks like Win98 IE only a bit minimalistic.
Oh and when I found TabKiller to completely remove tabs from it, it became the browser of my dreams.
And coming from IE8 it really is fast.
