"Oh Well...."
by: Rodger
Mozilla Firefox 10.0 Beta 3 / 9.0.1
Pros: uses less ram than 7 Cons: would not remember some settings and no download progress in add on bar-no good themes for newer versions(I use 3.6) Other Thoughts: I am using XP SP2 so I guess it wont work well on older machines,shame they should test it on XP as lots of people use it.Was this review helpful?   5 out of 9 users found this review helpful.

"No Issues with latest version"
by: reverbfreak
Mozilla Firefox 9.0.1 Final
Pros: I use a number of plugins as do most FF users. Some of them had to go by the wayside a few versions ago, but since 8.0 I've had no issues, and this latest version presented no incompatibilities at all. For those interested in using a 64-bit version of Firefox, install this latest update, then do a search for Waterfox. It uses the same profile as Firefox, but writes it's files into a separate path. Both versions are compatible to run at the same time. fun stuff! Cons: None. Other Thoughts: Go for it.Was this review helpful? 10 out of 21 users found this review helpful.

"dont update"
by: Mike
Mozilla Firefox 9.0 Beta 4 / 8.0.1
Pros: Not a bad browser as long as you don.t update. Cons: Firefox nags me to update all the time and every time I do more and more addons and plug ins become useless.
Too many updates and not enough attention paid to usability in regard to the above. Other Thoughts: I wont update again. What is the point of making a browser so configurable and providing so many add ins and plug ins if half of them dont work each time you update.Was this review helpful? 15 out of 28 users found this review helpful.

"What's all this talk about browser speed?"
by: BXF
Mozilla Firefox 7.0 Beta 6
Pros: I don't know what problems people are having. I type in a URL, and the appropriate site comes up. I certainly don't feel I'm waiting an excessive amount of time. On the rare occasion I switch to IE9, I don't feel there's any speed difference. If some benchmarks indicate that FF loses out in speed by amounts quantified in nanoseconds, consider the fact that a well chosen set of add-ons can save you REAL time. Cons: May be somewhat memory hungry, but I haven't compared this criterion to other browsers. Other Thoughts: Not everyone attaches much importance to productivity. If you do, have a look at (OK, check out) the multitude of available FF add-ons, and consider of how much effort some of these could save you.Was this review helpful? 27 out of 56 users found this review helpful.

Mozilla Firefox 6.0.1
Pros: Vary secure , lots of plugins can be used with this Cons: Lags slow like a turtle , ive put this to the test with other's - it takes almost twice as long to load sites as lets say opera or safari. Other Thoughts: If you have a fast connection this will slow you down . Was this review helpful? 24 out of 45 users found this review helpful.

Mozilla Firefox 7.0 Beta 2 / 6.0
Pros: The numerous Add-ons. Other Thoughts: As long as Mozilla Firefox developers don't further alienate Add-on authors with their (i.e. Mozilla's) frequent and incessant major version updates, which can cause incompatibility with many add-ons, then ok, press onward in bettering Firefox.Was this review helpful? 44 out of 87 users found this review helpful.

"Up Up and Away"
by: buck_a
Mozilla Firefox 7.0 Beta 1 / 6.0
Pros: 3.0 Cons: Later versions. Other Thoughts: Anyone getting the feeling that this is becoming a pi**ing contest with chrome on upgrades? They just release 6 and now 7 beta. Seriously, get one working before you release another. Oh, bonus, less functionality with external APIs such as adobe. GG on FAIL.

"server not found"
by: Metalhorde
Mozilla Firefox 6.0 Final
Pros: the older versions Cons: newer versions Other Thoughts: The only upside to FF and It's "clone" Pale Moon, is without a doubt the plug-ins. Other than that, if you like waiting for pages to load, but at least your security plug-ins are working, then FF & PM is for you.Was this review helpful? 32 out of 81 users found this review helpful.

"Pointless versioning"
by: wolfbeast
Mozilla Firefox 6.0 Final
Pros: Increasing support for modern standards Cons: It's a memory and cpu hog, it takes a long time to start, breaks many add-ons. Other Thoughts: Mozilla's versioning scheme has gone out the window - what little 5.0 had over 4.0 is even less in this version 6.0!
This is not a new major version, it is at most a service release, one I'll probably remove again since it needlessly breaks a LOT of my add-ons with version checks.
Why call it v6? Why not 4.1 or 4.2? Save us all the compatibility headaches, please!Was this review helpful? 44 out of 99 users found this review helpful.

"Like good wine!"
by: Baloney
Mozilla Firefox 6.0 Final
Pros: Fast, stable, secure. A bit long to start if as me you have 60+ add-ons, otherwise starts faster than IExplorer. Cons: Memory management improving and yet proven to be better handled with many tabs opened than competitors. Other Thoughts: Getting better and better. I've been with Firefox ever since ver. 2.x, version 5 was a big improvement, this 6.x doesn't change a lot, though 7 to come will.Was this review helpful? 39 out of 82 users found this review helpful.

"Hold On Firefox"
by: QHoT
Mozilla Firefox 6.0 Beta 4 / 5.0.1
Pros: No comment Cons: No longer light weight and fast.
Great add-ons no longer work.
Looks like and feels like Chrome & IE.
Crawls with 4 gigs of RAM
Too many built in "gizmos". Other Thoughts: Firefox was always the sleek, fast user friendly browser. I do not need anyone's toolbar nor do I want Google on my hard drive. I want a clean browser that I will add a few "goodies" onto. Consider a 2 an honor only for the developers, and that includes those who work tirelessly, building add-ons.Was this review helpful? 56 out of 118 users found this review helpful.
