EDIT: But when I select "download firefox 3," it takes me to v2's download page. :-?

Wait... so this is TODAY? Well, I can guarantee at least 20 downloads at the office, and a couple at home.

I like how their server went down earlier today due to the traffic. At least they got it back up fairly quickly.

I managed to get it, but now the site seems down again. I'm fighting to try and get some of my addons back, since I completely wiped everything from Firefox 2 and earlier.

Downloaded and installed, though I don't notice a large difference.

Installed it a bit ago, and it's still eating up a large bit of RAM. I thought this version was supposed to fix up those memory issues?

It's probably something on my end most likely though. How much RAM is it using for everyone else?

I think that due to my ridiculous sleep schedule, I missed being included in this WORLD RECORD thing, but I'm still glad to download Firefox 3. I just hope my plugins still work...

I'm hanging around 100,000K wtf. :(

-, and ImageZoom work thankfully. AutoCopy is a no go though.

I wiped Firefox before reinstalling, so I lost all my extensions. Sadly, as of a few minutes ago the extensions page wasn't working. I know one of the two extensions I want back most doesn't have a version that works, haven't tried the other yet.

I use Internet Explorer, and Opera.

Firefox just isn't my cup of web browser.

I'm glad that Download Statusbar and PDF Download work, but -, Fasterfox, and Long Titles are all broken. Also, I'm not real hot on the new default theme, but that can be fixed easily enough...

EDIT: Thanks - and random-generic-but-compatible-with-Firefox-3-Long-Titles-clone! I'm only missing Fasterfox now.

Long titles (assuming it does what I think it does), is no longer needed. :)
