Up again....

 

[Snidely Whiplash]

Can anybody here tell me the url of Speed Dial? I can't get it to work normally with Tab Mix Plus so I need the url.

 

[milanbaros]

Site isn't loading for me. System overload? You'd think they'd be prepared.

That's not the right one. The real.exe should be 7.8MB in size, not 7.1MB. That's the RC3 we were mislead to download earlier.

This picture shows the filesize as 5.75MB. :lol

That's the same filesize as the first picture but from Firefox 2.0. I think they shopped "3.0" into the first picture. :lol

 

[avcables]

The forums are sucking right now. That was supposed to be an edit and it ended up as another post.

 

[milanbaros]

What is the record?

 

[Snidely Whiplash]

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html It's up and it's only 7.1mb so I guess that's the final size.

Those all check out to be the same as the Release Candidate 3 files. Not to mention they advertise the download as being 7.8MB right on their front page. I don't think those are the right releases.

RC3 = Final. That's how release candidates work.

7.8 meg was the size of 2.0.0.14 or whatever was on the half-updated icon.

 

[avcables]

Oh well. Then I've got the right version. It was the same one I posted back on page one.

I thought it was my internet. so the forums are being slow for everyone ?

Yes, they're broken.

2.0.0.14 is 5.4 ish MB actually. 7.8MB really IS firefox 3 (which I just downloaded/installed.)

Use this link, people. You can alter the OS and language to suit your needs, too.

It means you don't have to go through the slow-ass Mozilla site, and it'll hook you up to a mirror. If it's slow the first time, kill the download and start another download. Chances are you'll get a different mirror.

Alrighty! About to download. So do I need to uninstall FF2 before installing FF3 or does it not even matter?

 

[Laguna X]

I installed FF3 a few minutes ago and have been playing around with it. So far, I'm really liking the new firefox. Performance-wise, it's soooo much better. Major props to Mozilla!

Don't have to IIRC. Just make sure you make a back-up of your bookmarks.

No need to uninstall.

we lose our bookmarks?

Edit: Wow that downloaded fast. *Click* *Your download has finished*

 

[K.Jack]

The official FF3 download directly from Mozilla's site is definitely 7.1 megs. I just got it. I don't know what the 7.8 that I got earlier was.

 

[FatalT]

When I installed it, I was reverted to the bookmarks I had when I tried out the 3.0 beta. This sucks too because I changed around a lot of sites during the time when I tried the beta and then went back to regular 2.0. Oh well. I think I got most of them back to how they were before I installed 3.0, but it still sucks that I had to do it.

 

[Fatalah]

The official website is running smoothly now FYI

 

[zoku88]

I'm so sorry, it really does say 7.1 megs. I'm so messed up right now... so confused.

Nah, my bookmarks are still here. It's just a good habit to backup your bookmarks every now and then.

Well, it isn't supposed to happen, but I've heard rumors it happened to some..

 

[syllogism]

You can import your firefox 2 bookmarks via bookmark manager if it doesn't do it automatically

 

[Fatalah]

The download counter is FLYING right now!

 

[Foxix Von]

The official download on Mozilla is definitely 7.1 megs. I just got it. I don't know what the 7.8 that I got earlier was.

What the heck? At the firefox homepage it says 7.8 but the actual file is 7.1?

 

[zoku88]

I really wish Mozilla would update weave. It slows down performance SOOO much since RC2...

 

[RiskyChris]

I'm so sorry, it really does say 7.1 megs. I'm so messed up right now... so confused.

It's cool, =)

 

[M3wThr33]

Running it. A little weird. I'll give it time.

 

[captive]

Just got it, i notice things are loading faster for me.

 

[Confused101]

Just got it, i notice things are loading faster for me.

I'm experiencing this as well. I'm liking it so far.

 

[K.Jack]

What the heck? At the firefox homepage it says 7.8 but the actual file is 7.1?

Yeah I dunno. I downloaded it from the page which lists the versions by language, and it was 7.1 megs.

Definitely faster than F2. I like it. A lot.

 

[RiskyChris]

Firefox is the greatest.

 

[Foxix Von]

oh my god I'm in love.

Everything looks a little different but in a... OH MY GOD THIS IS AWESOME kind of way.

I like the new way it renders stuff and holy hell this is fast O_O

 

[xBerserker]

I'm guessing over 2 million downloads by tomorrow night. It's already at 684,958

[FabCam]

I like the new look. It just looks cleaner. Haven't looked out all the new functions though...

 

[fistfulofmetal]

The add-on site is simply dead.

 

[cjdunn]

U.S. @ 500k

 

[FabCam]

The add-on site is simply dead.

Just what I was thinking. It just ain't working. Btw, does anyone have the fireNES addon? How does it work because whenever I click on a game to play a new window opens but it just remains black.

Way the fuck more than 2 million.

 

[twinturbo2]

I'm grabbing the final version now. 10KB per second... and this is a 256 KBPS DSL connection. This might take a bit...

 

[Costanza]

Wow, it's really fucking fast. I love it.

 

[avcables]

YAY FIREFOX

 

[hadareud]

why the hell is my browser still saying (Build 2008052906) after installing it?

Hasn't it upgraded properly from RC2?
