Excuse my ignorance. Is Firefox 3 in beta or has it already been officially released?

I dont mind it at all. Maybe its not much of an improvement, but I have encountered no negatives.

Behold yon miserable creature. That Point is a Being like ourselves, but confined to the non-dimensional Gulf. He is himself his own World, his own Universe; of any other than himself he can form no conception; he knows not Length, nor Breadth, nor Height, for he has had no experience of them; he has no cognizance even of the number Two; nor has he a thought of Plurality; for he is himself his One and All, being really Nothing. Yet mark his perfect self-contentment, and hence learn his lesson, that to be self-contented is to be vile and ignorant, and that to aspire is better than to be blindly and impotently happy.

All I know is that it won't play videos on one of my favorite websites from FF2.

How is it with memory? The thing I hate most about FF2 is memory leaks. Without fail I usually have to shut it down and restart it after a couple of days because it's sucked up so much memory. It gets unstable, with crazy fonts and text size on pages, videos won't play through the browser. Very irritating.

you browse for a couple days at a time?? Even still, there shouldn't be memory leaks.

I leave the browser open, yeah. I have multiple copies of a program I use for trading that stay running 24/7, so I never turn my computer off. I only reboot it every once in a while when it starts acting up and the cause of it acting up is usually Firefox.
I've done a complete wipe of Firefox (more than just uninstalling it) and I still always have the same problems.

They fixed the memory leaks, finally. Though there are still extensions going around with leaks in them.

I upgraded to FF3 and it is full of all kinds of irritating bugs. I think I'm going back to FF2 tomorrow.

I don't like FF3, but the memory management is much improved.
