Links won't load

My problem is that links won't load! I click and nothing happens to pages that work just fine... :(

install crash

same here... I feel your pain. Tried to install the new version but it won't complete the install process and crashes before ever starting. I think an add on needs deleting but now my old version won't come back. A window comes up anout reporting the problem but I never get any response from Mozilla. I too am now stuck and need to go back to IE. I guess I lost all my bookmarks too.

Firefox 3.0 Setup Crash

Like Spencer & of LA I went to download the 3.0 version and got a crash report. I tried to go back to my old version and can't. Help!

Big Time Problems With Firefox 3.0

I use a stock trading platform. When it hit the "cancel" key on the platform, all firefox windows go down. No crash report. Wish I had the old version...2...14 back but I cannot find it on line.

Try Taboo

It is an extension for tabitis. Tabs can be saved and viewed (and searched) on a special tab as thumbnails. Of course the search function is good because it is only cleaning by moving stuff around... Go to Tools -> Add-ons and search for Taboo on the "Get Add-ons tab" click on the result and Add.

New Firefox 3, bad news

I loved Firefox and thought it would be a good idea to upgrade... I was wrong. Now the old version won't work since trying to install 3.O, and Mozilla/Firefox web site provides no tech support. There is a link for support, but it is simply a Q&A forum that doesn't provide actual support. Oh well, looks like I'm back to using Internet Explorer (that I don't care for)

Looks good

The smart address bar will take some getting used to. And it took me a second to figure out the one-click bookmarking and where exactly the one-click bookmarks go. It does seem faster though. Huge plus
