If you don't have the Firefox 3 beta, get it here.
Otherwise, if you have Firefox 3 beta of any version... just click help>check for updates if your browser hadn't done it automatically. RC stands for release candidate, which means that it probably will be the same as the stable version later on, as long no fatal bugs of any kind are found. I'm going to give it a try right now. Edit: Just a warning, of my extensions only DownThemAll! and NoScript is compatibility with Firefox 3 RC1. My Littlefox theme is disabled as well, although I have a feeling I could probably force it without any problems... ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

Well, the UI varies depending on the platform you use too (see Wikipedia), probably so it would "melt in" better into the UI enviroment. I guess you thought the Win XP theme was too flashy, or used to be.
Personally I prefer using Littlefox, but I think I try using the default theme of Firefox 3 until Littlefox is upgraded... ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

OH SWEET LORD AILURE THANK YOU FOR TELLING ME.
I was starting to get annoyed at the occasional crashes. |

That's the case for allot of the extensions. I think Firefox just uses some simple system where it checks supported versions for each extensions... and not doesn't make any kind of deep analysis if it really broke or not. ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

Posted by Ailure"Better to err on the side of caution" appears to be their motto on extensions. ____________________ |

I had lots of trouble with adding/removing/etc extensions in 3b5 and 3rc1. Half of the time it worked right away and the other half I had to install the extension over and over until it finally worked. ____________________ |

Hmm, it's possible that your profile is borked in Firefox. >> I hadn't any problems removing/installing extensions so far... I removed a few old ones that I don't use. ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

It was still doing the same thing after I uninstalled/reinstalled it over and over. Eventually I found out that "installing" an extension multiple times will eventually get it actually installed, but it's still rather annoying to have to do that. ____________________ |

Posted by NightKev That doesn't help anything, your profile(s) aren't deleted. Win32: %APPDATA%\Mozilla Practically every other OS: $HOME/.mozilla |

It had an option to delete the profile data though...it had a checkbox that said something like "Delete saved settings/bookmarks/etc" which I checked. ____________________ |

I didn't notice the Firefox menus were different until you pointed it out. xD Does it really bother you that much? :/ ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

Preferable to update through the browser if you have RC1 already.
Then, the update provided by the browser is a little delayed. I think this is done on purpose by Mozilla. ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org

I propose thread renaming (RC1 --> RC2, obv). ____________________ |

Good idea, probably wouldn't have to create a new thread for every version release. ____________________ AIM: gamefreak1337, MSN: Emil_sim@spray.se, XMPP: ailure@xmpp.kafuka.org
