Anyone else download Firefox 3.0?  It sure seems to be a lot faster.  I lost the ability to retain my login status on the old Firefox and had to revert to IE. 

If you want to download, here's the link:

I downloaded it a few weeks ago. I think it's faster and overall better. Now we just have to wait for all the add ons to update to 3.0.

I won't be able to update to v3 until other things catch up.  Looking forward to giving it a spin, tho.

What you downloaded a few weeks ago was a pre-release beta version.  The first real version was just released on Thursday.  I am using it too and like it so far.  It did mysteriously lose a few bookmarks when I updated from Firefox 2, but other than that I am happy.

I just downloaded and installed it and everything seems to be in tact except an incompatible add-on I never used in V 2.0 anyway.  8)

Version 3.5.1 has been released July 16th.

A couple known bugs in Windows:
Pressing enter in the Location Bar will not do anything if you are running AVG SafeSearch v8.0 or lower. Upgrading AVG SafeSearch fixes the problem (see bug 479095)

If you select Fax from the Print Dialog, the Windows Fax dialog will appear and then disappear. Faxing still works from other applications (see bug 440486)

One known bug in MacOSX:
If the user repeatedly changes the paper size and asks for a Print Preview, Firefox may crash (see bug 495567)

I am not sure if my problem started with with Firefox new version. Maybe someone can help me here. All my cookies are missing, meaning when I go to the FF page I now have to login and I only stay logged in for a an hour. I have to put in my ID and my password everytime. I have this problem at other sites also. Even though I tell the sites to remember me I now have to put in my ID and passwords. any suggestions are appreciated.

Maybe if you reset when you want cookies to expire.  Under the tools link. then options. then privacy.

I have the same problem with the new version of Firefox.  Sometimes it won't allow me to enter the forum without signing in.  Other times, no problem.  But, it will never allow me to sign in to Yahoo.  No way, no how.  So, I use IE to get in there.

I just upgraded to the latest version, and I think it was 3.5  We'll see what happens.

It is. 3.5.2

I just ran some Apple updates on my Macbook Pro and am unable to log into various places (FF seems fine).  Fairly certain it is the latest Java (JRE) update that b0rked it.
