Firefox 3

p2pnet news | Products:- If you’ve been using the Firefox 3 beta and you haven’t already noticed, the official Firefox 3 is now online.
With more than 15,000 improvements, Firefox 3 is safer, smarter and, “two to three times faster” than ever before, Mozilla promises.
Highlighted are six features >>>
- One-Click Bookmarking
“Bookmark, search and organize Web sites quickly and easily. - Improved Performance
“View Web pages faster, using less of your computer’s memory.” - Smart Location Bar
“Find the sites you love in seconds - enter a term for instant matches that make sense. - Instant Web Site ID
“Avoid online scams, unsafe transactions and forgeries with simple site identity. - Full Zoom
“See any part of a Web page, up close and readable, in seconds.” - Platform-Native Look & Feel
“Browse with a Firefox that’s integrated into your computer’s operating system.”
One of the hang-ups for the beta version (for us, anyhow) was a tendency to crash.
So far, with the official version, no crashes : )
At 3:52 am Pacific, there’d been 5,854,564 downloads.

“So far, with the official version, no crashes …”
I spoke too soon — two crashes and re-starts since I logged on.
Cheers!

I had a crash, but it wasn’t a big deal. I also sent the report to mozilla, so hopefully that will help identify the problem. The one thing that does concern me about ff3 is the frequent hardrive access; it seems period access the harddisk for a sustained period; I also had this problem on ubuntu linux. It seems to be doing something in the background with the hd, not sure what though.
