    2.0.0.14?

    That's getting a bit ridiculous in the version numbering department now, isn't it.

    I haven't had any problems with FF3 Beta 5 yet. It's quite an improvement over FF2.

    FF3 will be out in RC by end of month, and likely released sometime in May.

    Must we be alerted every time that there will be an update to FireFox?

    Now seriously, I can care less for the FF 4, as there is not add-on compatible with it yet.

    Firefox 4 will blur the lines of desktop and web, says Mozilla, so you should care. ;)

    Hmmm, I wonder if they might decide to ship it(FF3) about the same time as Ubuntu 8.04? It seems logical.....

    Hi.

    does anybody else have a problem in Vista with the pages not fully loading, they get to about 99.99% and the cursor turns into a blue rotating circle, and my router show no downloading?

    It happens a lot on NotebookReview Forum

    Clear Private Data seems to fix it, but why does it happen at all?

    Regards

    John.
