Firefox 3: Set a Guinness World Record

Yep, servers are being well hammered, looking good for the Firefox team :))

I'll try in a few hours, I'm using the latest release candidate anyway :))
 
Download link working fine now, downloading at 7KB/s though :LOL:

I think they underestimated the demand ...
 
dunno weather i should install is or not

i have a few add-ons and stuff that may not but supported
 
For every new version of Firefox I've installed I just manually edit the incompatible addons to work with that version and I've never had a problem.....

Hi Paul,

we've been having a few technical glitches because of the high traffic to the site, but you should now be able to download Firefox 3 here:

http://getfirefox.com

- there's a 24 hour window to download, so if it doesn't work right away, you can check it out later
- if you still see a download for Firefox 2, you should hit refresh to get the latest version of the page

Here's the announcement: http://blog.mozilla.com/blog/2008/06/17/download-day-is-here/

You can also follow this live at air.mozilla.com

Nice :)
 
Weird, seems as soon as I've installed 3.0, the chatbox refresh button has been permanently greyed out and browsing a lot of websites seem MUCH slower.

Hopefully just a coincidence though!
 
Well i just backed up 2.0 with mozbackup and then uninstalled it

Then i installed 3.0 and tried to get my old passwords, bookmarks, add-ons and other stuff i want back but it was having none of it

so i have gone back to the old version until i can transfer all the stuff i want over to 3.0

did seem alot faster though when i was messing about with it
 
Tabs working fine, and all my passwords have transferred no problem.
 
Got tabs working again, one of my addons was causing it, either the undo close tab button or tabbrowser preferences, disabled them both and I can now see the 47 tabs I'd opened ;)
 
First thing I don't like, Google search in the search window thingy is using Google.se and I can't figure out how to change it to Google.co.uk :(
 
Cos I type in a search term and the google page loaded is in Swedish ;)

I found a workaround to fix the issue though, installed the "Add to search bar" addon, then opened Google.co.uk, right clicked and added to search bar, then went to C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\9ox5a4xc.default\searchplugins and cut google.xml and pasted it over the one in C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\searchplugins and it works perfectly, now searches co.uk just as I like :)
