I’m sticking with FF 2.x until more extensions are available for 3.

It’s the only browser I use. Internet Explorer is way to wormy for my liking.

Here's a FF site with answers to many of the problems users are experiencing following the switch:

I have been using Firefox for some time now. But in the past week some very obvious changes have occured. I can no longer open YouTube links with Mozilla Firefox. A little box keeps coming up, saying:

“Hello, you either have JavaScript turned off or an old version of Adobe’s Flash Player. Get the latest Flash player.”

So - I click the box to download the “NEW” version of Adobe’s Flash player - and get nothing.

Yesterday I sent to the trash, 20 icons from my start up page that were for installing “Adobe Flash Player”.

Something is very wrong and I don’t know what it is..........

So, I am forced to go back to IE.

Have been using FF 3 Beta 5 for a while.

Never figured out if the new one was new or not.

"Gooky"? "Sticky"?

Maybe "gooky" is like "kooky" and "geeky"?

But "sticky" is just Too Much Information...

Great news!!

I started using Firefox around 4 years ago, and haven’t looked back. I expect the Firefox increase of ‘market share’ to continue, because IE7 has to be the worst web browser I have ever seen.

The most interesting thing about that day was on the Firefox download website where it showed the #s of downloads over each country or place on a global map. All industrialized countries has decent showings; when I looked, only the USA was well into the millions, but North Korea had ZERO downloads. No other country had zero. Even some weird islands had more than that.

The notion of going for a world record, as gooky and nutty as it may have sounded

I didn't realize Vietnamese people were known for mass downloading.
