Firefox Update!



Hot on the heels of the IE9 update, Mozilla Firefox has updated to Version 4.

This is a major update, and is suggested for all firefox users. I personally suggest updating because it makes having lots of tabs open go way faster, and also has far more support for advanced HTML5 and CSS3 options which we would like to use in the future to make Subeta awesome.

thanks so much for that info my tabs are back to normal and not on top :)

Eh, don't like the new update. It looks too much like chrome for my tastes, and having tabs on top isn't really my thing. Keeping 3, for now.

Yep, noscript and adblocker plus both work the new version (I disabled the acceleration and that fixed the messy font rendering :D)

Not making the switch until it's necessary. Hopefully they'll let us know when we absolutely NEED to switch for subeta to work properly. I don't usually have issues with tabs loading and shit, so really don't see the point.

You can change the location of the tabs by right clicking in an empty space next to them and unchecking 'Tabs on top'.

It will take some getting used to, but I like it. I will like it even better when Colorful Tabs is compatible with it though.:)

It's super different, but I kind of like it. It's definitely going faster for me. It'll take a little getting used to, but I think I'm going to be glad I updated. :)

Are the NoScript & AdBlocker Plus ad-ons working on the new version yet?

/shrug. I love it, it looks much sleeker and it makes my webpage bigger because it eliminates a lot of the useless space in the top bar, and I'm all about making things look prettier aha. Thanks for the reminder! Now to wait for my other add-ons to catch up to 4.0! I miss Stylish xD

Doesn't sound like a lot of people like the update. I'm always hesitant on updates of any kind because in my experience they usually mess things up on my computer, so I don't update unless necessary.

takes way too much of my stuff away went back to the previous version. Have to have my norton toolbar and it will not work with the new version

Chrome and IE still both load faster than FireFox for me. My computer at home just can't start Firefox in a timely manner, and it's just not impressive enough to make me want to wait for it to hog down my system resources.

The tabs on top, which will take some getting use to, but otherwise it looks organized. Yay :3

Thanks for the info, but I'm sticking with my older version of FF until they fix the font rendering issues that FF4 (and IE9 :( ) have

I use Google Chrome. I find it is faster and more user friendly. Frefox lags for me
