just did a test, firefox 3 does indeed seem to be far better than 2.
in opera and firefox i loaded the following:
download.com
ta
audiopioneers
youtube
2advanced.com (heavy flash)
beatport.com (flash)
google
opera was 73mb, firefox was 103mb. however, when i closed all the tabs so that just google was showing, firefox and opera were both 53mb.
seeing as opera looks/feels like , i have to say ff3 ftw! |

Just dump ff2 for ff3 and then report back. Good day. |

| Am I the only Mac user that uses Camino? It's Firefox for Mac. Runs incredibly. |

It isn't firefox for the mac. Camino is another mozilla based browser, just like netscape, firefox, and a long list of others too. |

| The other FAR more annoying problem is sometimes when watching videos on youtube it kind of crashes 2/3 of the way through and the loading bar jumps from where I'm up to and the end bit. Any ideas? I've just tried reinstalling flash player... hopefully that helps. |

Does it "appear" to be fully loaded but you can't watch the whole video or just quit loading anymore? If so, I have had this problem a good amount lately with flash-based video players. |

hah man, my parents used to insist that scrolling down or clicking ANYTHING before a webpage had completely loaded was bad for the computer :p |

No it doesn't quit loading anymore... the darker bar loads to that point... and when I get to it I get a jumping progress bar with the current minute/second jumping along with it. A reinstall of adobe flash player seems to have fixed this problem... at least for this video... it'll probably just happen again with 5% of them still anyway. |
