The Official FF3 is available to download. If you're still on Internet Explorer, please download FireFox 3. You'd be doing yourself a favor. If you are still on FF2, update!

Features and fixes for Firefox 3 include:

* Updated address bar with integrated bookmarking functionality
* Standard themes that are consistent with the native UI of your Operating System (Windows, Mac, Linux)
* Revamped bookmark manager
* New Icons
* One-click site information
* Secure add-on updates
* Vista Parental Controls
* Revamped password management
* Full page zoom
* Scrolling Tabs
* One-click bookmarking
* Tags for bookmarks
* tons more!

As soon as it is available to download the amount of downloads will be monitored. Firefox is trying to set a new world record of the most software downloads in 24 hours and to be involved in this all you need to do is download Firefox 3 today: 17th June which is known as "Download Day". (Full Download not an Update).

Will people here be downloading this latest version of Firefox?

AND it uses less memory than everything else.

Lifehacker ran the latest editions of Firefox, Internet Explorer, Opera 9.5, and Safari for Windows through some unscientific but highly geeky tests on a plain old Windows computer. Take a look at the full (and somewhat unexpected) results after the jump. Read here.

Specs of the test system:
* OS: Windows Vista Home Premium (32-bit)
* Processor: 2 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor
* Memory: 2 GB

Firefox cant cause that stuff to happen. Strange though.

Hah. I have the most recent version of Firefox. That's right, 2.0.0.14. You know what makes that the most recent for me? Because I have Windows 98. Hah! XD

Don't tell me what I can or can't do!

I've downloaded it. It's pretty nice so far.

Some of my add-ons aren't compatible right now, but hopefully there'll be updates for those at some point in the future.

Otherwise, very nice.

It didn't work at all initially (but that may be to do with a surprise registry edit that my virus scanner told me about this morning, which I blocked), but it's running smoothly now.

-gingerly clicks download-
...
Click, click, click... Okay, I've got it.
Okay, now I'm on Sonic Blast. Shadow Blade's set for the skin.
WTF.
The background's not showing up.
Okay, smackjeeves...
WTF.
The HTML's messed up a bit, and parts of the layout are in the wrong spots.
Okay, Neopets...
WTF.
All the HTML's messed up.
...
Firefox. Hates. Me.
The skin/layout/whatever looks nice, though.

The background may not be showing up because Photobucket was down.

Christmas is back again

The only thing that bugs me is when the page aint loading it self compleate. Sometimes leaving the page shorten. Some topics might be missing shrouded into the unknown since i cant use the scroll down function. Hmm, yet it's not a big problem. Since the update button is always there and it works so much better with FireFox 3 then with my old IE. So i will probably never change again. XD

Working on banner, but if your looking to have some time off. Come, visit my channel on youtube.

No, the background won't show up in FF, even if it'll show up in IE. So Photobucket isn't the problem, it's my computer. P:

I actually kinda like the whole history popping up in the address bar, like when you've been to a site called "Awesum land" you can just type in something like land or awesum and it'll appear in the address bar. Though, that is the only thing new I notice about it >_>

Well I've offically abandoned firefox 3. Its just far to glitchy.
Every time I click on a bookmark, a window pops up for saving the web page. Also, my scroll thing is messed up as well. It scrolls far far to slow.
All this just happened over night
