FIREFOX 3 TOMORROW

[granville]

Yep, that seems to be working. I'll install it in just a second. I doubt I'll see any difference. I was already using Firefox 3 RC2.

Theres a lot of problems with the sites now, strange errors.

The installation xJonny posted says version 3. Is it really the right one?

 

[R2DJ]

Don't mean to brag, but this is how it looks like when the site WORKS...

Also, most of my add-ons are not compatible so the place is looking empty right now.

Spoiler: omg it workz

If you're looking for a reliable DL site for the final 3.0, filehippo is your guy!

If you want it to count towards the record, you may want to wait until this site is working:

I'm already downloading from the official portuguese site, so that counts for the record, right?

Could somebody explain this to me?

Wasn't this version supposed to be less RAM-consuming? Is this a joke or something? My FF2 was using "only" 30 to 40 MB, and it had MORE extensions installed that this FF3 (which are still not many, about 6, no less). And the best thing is that it eats more RAM every second. Now it's over 115MB.

I will reinstall it, from scratch, deleting FF2's previous installation... but this doesn't look good.

about 6

Are you sure, it should have been using more than 40MB with little load?

That's Aero Fox, IIRC.

It seems the link I posted actually happens to be RC3, so don't use that one. It's what I get for not checking my sources.

 

[granville]

Seems to be working fine as I'm now using it to post this message.

Something weird is that this is the first time a Firefox installation has EVER asked me to reboot my PC. Even the pre-releases of Firefox 3 didn't do that.

[The Worst]

it's working now

Mozilla.com seems to be up.

Although the one of mozilla.com
3.0 for Windows English (British) (7.8MB)

seems to be different to the one on mozilla-europe
Windows (3.0, English (British), 6.4MB)

because of the filesizes and the fact that they are differently worded, they both download to 7.0MB and have the same checksums.

 

[DeMoN]

Still can't download it. What a bunch of morons, I hope they don't win the record, but they will because it's never been attempted before.

 

[da_head]

omg it works! though does this contribute to the record? o.O
