It just f***ing crashed on me 2 times in a row, I sh*t you not! My version is 3.5.5 and it's absolute garbage. You guys must be running XP or Windows 7 becasue I'm running Vista.

I'm using Firefox AND Vista right now, and I've never had any problems.

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

I've got Opera, and never had problems. I've never seen why Firefox is so amazing, but I've never had problems when I used that, either.

When I saw the thread title, I thought Firefox was down permanently!

DAAAAAAAAMN. Firefox won't open anymore! I have to use Chrome now.

I still like Firefox, and 3.5 has been excellent for me.

got its @$$ kicked by google chrome!!

Honestly, Google Chrome and Internet Explorer pulled ideas from FireFox for different areas of their browsers such as tabbed browsing and the search engine plugin at the top right. Back with FireFox was Netscape Navigator there was still tabbed browsing.

Don't see where you think that FF is going down hill. I think it is better and more stable. The fact it still does not use ActiveX controls makes it supreme. Add all the plugins like AdBlock Plus and Web Of Trust, it is top notch. I'm a network admin and all the techs and admins I know use FF.

I loves me my Firefox so I don't even know if Google Chrome has the following essential features:

1. AdBlock
2. NoScript

Without those two plug-ins (or a decent facsimile of), any non-Firefox browser can shove it.

Currently playing: Gunstar Super Heroes (GBA), Infinite Space (NDS)

Opera is the best, just try it. I've been using it since 2002 or 2003 and it just keeps getting better and better. Unlike Firefox, as I can see.

I understood XP, V, and IE.

Microsoft Windows XP, Professional Edition, Service Pack 3 + Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 = for the win, in my humble opinion. Your mileage may vary.

Tata for now!

I only know Opera from the Wii and DSi. Not too impressed from those, but they aren't exactly full-fledged browsers like Opera for PC could be, I guess.

I understood everything Vendetta said except for "YMMV." Not bad, IMO.

I haven't bothered downloading anything, I'm still using IE, and it seems fine to me.

I actually use both Firefox and Google Chrome. There are a few sites I visit (one has to do with my school), and Chrome actually screws up big time, and won't load things correctly. But yeah, Firefox has it's flaws as well, hence the reason I keep FF around just in case Chrome acts up.

@chunky_droid: That's what those in the know like to call "ignorant bliss." If IE is all you know, you might not realize just how much is screwed up with it. Same thing happened with a friend of mine using Microsoft Word. Basically, it happens with just about everybody who's just used to Microsoft products.
