I installed it, It seems pretty cool but I'm not too sure how many sites use it or whatever? And how do I know if a site supports it?

Once you install it, a little screen-wire looking thing will appear in the upper right hand corner, to the right of your search bar. Click it. In the upper right hand corner is a search option, you can search photobucket, flickr, amazon, google, etc. It also works on websites with thumbnails I think....but the fact that you can type "boobs" into it and scroll through thousands of...boobs....is pretty sweet in my book. :p

I tried it, searching boobs on there dug up some gross boob-age. :(

Seriously, just set it to search Google and type in lolcats. It's an endless wall of amazing.

Argh. I use so few extensions and yet most don't work with the update.

Has anyone had problems with Firefox 3 freezing on them? I've had my laptop freeze up on me 3 times since yesterday when I downloaded it and it never freezes on me.

Hmm.. Netiher have I.

I used to have some slight slowdowns before, I don't even have those anymore.

And I love the new search bar. Reminded me of the days when I'd just type an AOL keyword to open a site back in the early '90s.. :)

Has anyone had trouble getting gamefaqs to load since switching over to Firefox 3?

I use Firefox 2 at work (too many plugins and extensions critical to what I do), and the site loads fine.

I'm using Firefox 3 at home, and it can't seem to connect, it acts like the server is down or something. I'm getting that message randomly on other websites too. The ads in the background of Gamespot do the same thing.

I thought it might be a problem with SSL2 being turned off by default, but I went into the about:config and enabled it, and still no dice.

If anyone wants to know, Firefox 3 is already out for Firefox Portable. So awesome.

I should try to see if I can run it at work again. The old system was very restrictive on logging whatever I did and blocking me.

although perhaps I shouldn't. being made to use IE6 at least somewhat tempers my urge to play on the internet all day

ps to anyone on a mac

While the default Firefox 3 skin is leagues better than Firefox 2, its still doesn't quite fit the look of OS X. The look is just a little off. Luckily, the latest version of GrApple (Yummy Variant) makes FF3 looks near exactly like Safari. The only thing still missing is the nifty way that the 'find' function displays within Safari, but such is the sacrifice to be made.

Its been enough to make me switch to Firefox 3 as my default browser in OS X.

What kind of trouble? It loads perfectly fine for me..

I'm having trouble with Google. It doesn't keep me logged in, so every time I start Firefox after a reboot, it asks me for my username and password..

Hmm, maybe it's my router doing something weird.

That is an odd problem you're having, though. Mine isn't doing that. It sounds like it may not be saving the cookie correctly.

My girlfriend had a problem where Google would always go to the spanish language version no matter how many times we changed the preferences.

I installed Digsby, and configured it to check my Gmail account. It started to happen after that, so I thought it may be the cause and removed the Gmail account from Digsby. Haven't rebooted yet though :)

Edit: Nope, Digsby wasn't the problem. I still had to log in again.. Another weird thing, after installing Digsby, and adding my Facebook account to see updates and for Facebook chat, I found that I had to log in every time I tried to open Facebook on my iPod Touch, but not on Firefox..

Bah! this is starting to grind at me, Firefox froze up again before and EVERY time I have to do a force shut down.

Try starting a new user profile. Google Firefox change user profile for instructions.

This has happened to me before, and this solution always works.
