RPAEGE  3.6 has a very serious crashing bug while printing. If you cancel a print dialog then try and print again it will crash, or if you try and print more than once without restarting FF it will crash.

NULLSET  Always been happy with Firefox in the past, but 3.6 seems to be very buggy. I've had dozens of crashes in the last few days, even when not actively using the browser (no windows open).

CANTONESEBOY  This version refused to launch for me. Updated via Firefox's autoupdate as well as downloaded the new installer from here.

What could be the problem?

O5220803  3.6 is working quite well on my Mac. No major problems. All of my extensions are working properly. Each new release of Fx becomes more compliant with Apple OSX standards, nice job Mozilla!

ST00P!D M0NK3Y  Because someone retarded gave my comment about Firefox being capable of loading old add-ons (for reasons which I do not understand is anyway negative), here is an ad-on fore Firefox that allows you to do just that without having to update the about:config file ~>

PRLAB  This version won't even open on my Mac, so I'm sticking with Safari, which was always faster anyway.
