Default Firefox 3...

... has crashed on me 3 times already. Back to Opera for a bit then.

Anyone else contributing to breaking the world record for most downloads in 24 hours?

I've been trying, but the servers nosedived. Finally got a working download from mozilla.com/firefox

I'm going to give it a go, but it'll have to seriously impress me to get me to switch from Safari. Safari is just uber-fast.

Yup, half my add-ons are now obsolete and it just freezes seemingly at random. I'm too knackered to bugger about tonight. I've got a fully loaded Opera too, so all is not lost.

Apple to tried to force Safari on me last time I updated iTunes which put me right off. Might try it one day in case I'm ever trapped in a windowless room with only a mac

Been using FF3 since Alpha 5 - it bloody rocks. Best compromise of speed and flexibility I've seen in any browser. Currently got RC1, because I'm running Ubuntu and the full release isn't in the repositories yet. Haven't seen any instability, so no real reason to run for it.

I was using it when I was using Ubuntu, I really like it. But Ubuntu kept crashing on me so I switched to Mandriva and now I'm using firefox 2 because I'm too retarded to download and install it.
