Firefox 3.0.1 fixed several issues found in Firefox 3.

• Fixed several security issues.
• Fixed several stability issues.
• Fixed an issue where the phishing and malware database did not update on first launch.
• Under certain circumstances, Firefox 3.0 did not properly save the SSL certificate exceptions list.

If you hadn't encounter problem with Firefox 3.0, then very likely you won't notice anything different. After all, 3 critical issues and various other issues are fixed in this release:

The 3 critical issues:
MFSA 2008-36 Crash with malformed GIF file on Mac OS X
MFSA 2008-35 Command-line URLs launch multiple tabs when Firefox not running
MFSA 2008-34 Remote code execution by overflowing CSS reference counter

for those who uses tab mix plus dev-build, it's not compatible with fx3.0.1

you have to manually edit it or use MR Tech Toolkit

open the .xpi with winrar and change the max version in install.rdf.

thanks for the remind.wonder why TMP take so long to be compatible with ff3.

i dont know how to change tab mix plus....can give me the file?..
tq

Save .xpi to desktop.
Right-click on it.
Select 'open with' if available, otherwise, select 'open'.
Choose 'select the program from a list'.
In subsequent dialogue box, select WinRar
At the top level of the archive you should find 'install.rdf'.
Drag 'install.rdf' to the desktop.
Right-click on it.
Select 'open with' if available, otherwise, select 'open'.
Choose 'select the program from a list'.
In the subsequent dialogue box, select Notepad
Search for line 'em:maxVersion="3.0"'.
Replace "3.0" with higher version. ("3.1" worked for me.)
Save file.
Drag 'install.rdf' from desktop back into the archive, overwriting existing file.
Drag the .xpi from your desktop into your FF window. Install.

thanks for sharing bro!!!

Im using FLOCK by mozilla.. this is social browser and mozilla 3 package

Thanks for sharing.

i think firefox 3 is nice than the password manager is better than firefox 2

IMHO FF3 is not slow PC friendly... i reverted back to FF2 after trying FF3 for 2 hours...

PS: thats why FF2 is still being developed... the latest is FF2 2.0.0.16 ...

Firefox 2 will be maintained with security and stability upgrades until mid-December 2008, after that all users are encouraged to upgrade to Firefox 3.

Typing this using Firefox 3

that is not the reason that it is still being developed.

Mozilla's policy is to continue support for previous version for 6 months after the release of a new version.

well, I gotta agree.

Firefox 3 isn't that friendly to slow PC users.

is it slow? I dont think so.

I just tested my bandwidth which got d.load=877kbps and upload=426kbps.

fyi im using the 1mbps streamyx.

what I meant is for old/slow/minimum spec PC , not slow in term of speed, but performance.

This sofware also good for use..thr security from virus good from the IE

i been usin firefox for long time this is the first time i encounter this kind problem after i update it to 3.0. i suff web like devianART i always get error.

anyone knows how to fix it

what type of error?

do you use adblock or stylish?

firefox.exe

i didnt use any of those

can you be more specific.

I don't have any error browsing deviantart.. both on 3.0 and 3.0.1

Firefox market share exceeds 20%, Internet Explorer dips below 70%

Chicago (IL) – It has been six weeks since Firefox 3 has been released and if we believe market share numbers provided by an ongoing survey of NetApplications, then it appears that Mozilla has had a successful launch with market share gains, especially at the expense of Microsoft’s Internet Explorer.

Examining NetApplications’ numbers, it is almost certain that this data is highly dependent on daily user behavior and that any results have to be taken with a grain of salt. But if the numbers are any indication then it is clear that Microsoft’s Internet Explorer market share is trending down, while Mozilla is playing with the 20% range and is successfully jumping over this mark more often.

The average market share for Firefox was 19.27% in June, up from 18.41% in May. Internet Explorer dropped from 73.75% to 72.95% in the same time frame.

According to the most recent data made available by the market research firm today, Internet Explorer stands at 69.88% today, while Firefox 2 and 3 account for a combined market share of 20.68% (Firefox 2: 13.75%, Firefox 3: 6.92%.) Since the launch of Firefox 3 on June 17, IE’s share was as high as 74.30% and played at least 12 time with numbers below the 71% mark, while today’s estimate is a new low for the browser in NetApplications’ chart.

On the other side, Firefox was estimated to have accounted for a market share of 17.81% on June 17 (Firefox 2: 16.19%, Firefox 3: 1.62%) and was able to jump over the 20% barrier eight times since then. Firefox 3 has been continuously gaining market share since launch and Firefox appears to be making a slight comeback in recent days, after falling as low as 12.37% on July 23. July 26 and July 27 have been the first two consecutive days on which Firefox was able to maintain a market share above 20%.

Since the day of the introduction of Firefox 3, Firefox was able to add 2.85 percentage points to its market share, while IE lost 4.20 points in the same time frame.
