Seriously, Firefox used to be awesome back in 2005-2006. Now the web browser gets worse and worse with each update and more unstable and crashes more often. Seriously, what the hell happened to this great web browser?

It never ever ever ever crashes on me. Ever.

Don't know how my version is so different.

i don't really have any problems with firefox other than the occasional memory-hogging that happens if you leave the same browser window open in Vista for like a week, lol, and the fact that firefox and kubuntu don't really get along soundwise for me (there's probably a fix, i'm just too lazy to bother with it at the moment). your mileage may vary, of course. :3

I agree that it's got more issues now than it used to, but in 99% of circumstances, you won't be doing anything using firefox that causes it to have issues. It's way in first place, imo--Google Chrome and Safari just don't have the compatibility and IE..I don't even know if that's considered anymore. I have better luck with it in windows or linux than I do in OSX, but it's still my main browser in all OSes. Plus the plugin support is AMAZING! Noscript FTW!!!!

Firefox rocks! I would never switch to another browser! I really don't know why it's safer then IE(and maybe others). But I know it's way faster! I have never had any problems with it. Like crashing. But I have to say, I don't know if it's getting worse or better. (I am new ). Chrome.... DAMN YOU

2 words... Firefox FTW!

It's crashed about 3 times for me, in the five years I've been using it. Add-ons, extensions, and the fact it's not IE, make it perfect for me.

This.

And Google Chrome is terrible. Every other web browser I've tried sucks.

Is it after 9PM EST? You should probably ignore the above post.

Firefox USED to crash on my more than seemed right...a few years ago. Now, I have no problems with it whatsoever.

I use Chrome on Windows (for the sheer speed of it, mainly. I rarely need to bother with plug-ins or etc), and Firefox on Linux. Never had any issues with Firefox, other than it takes a while to load (although it's still epically speedy compared to Internet Explorer, which is made of suck)

I haven't seen you around in a long time. WB AlexSays.

Also, what he said is the same for me. Never crashes.

Firefox works fine on my Ubuntu and Windows
I still prefer it over the other browsers (have all 5 big browsers installed though for web development)
