New rendering engine is a great improvement

I upgraded on Friday using the link in the browser Jonny and thats what I upgraded to. I just did the same thing and it states that I am fully up to date.

If you check firefox news it is still classing it as a beta

Firefox 3 download - English (British)

The site you linked to is out of date, and has not been updated since 20 of march..

Firefox 3 was launched on 17 June and 3.0.1 was officially released on 16th July.

Firefox 2 will not upgrade automatically to firefox 3, you have to download it and install in separately.

Security updates for firefox 2 are due to cease in december 08, so all users should update by then..

Hope that clears things up for you

Too late I just installed it I must say it looks a lot smarter and I managed to find my web developer and firebug plugins too

that's cool mate..

the new gecko rendering engine is sweet.. you must of noticed how much faster the pages render

Glad you extensions work.. I have been using firefox 3 since the late alpha builds (nightlys), but it is only recently that the extensions have caught up, tho I still have to use the development version of tab mix plus

Looks sweet mate and it does seem to load quicker too

The up-date was for version 2 but I downloaded version 3 this afternoon but it's still not letting me have my pussies even though it supposed to be compatable, but I'm not fussed as I seem to have a bigger viewing area somhow.

Tonight I was notified of 2 firefox updates, 1 was for IE and the other for the google toolbar

Could be a borked profile which is causing your issues...(firefox3 will still try to use your firefox 2 profile. Once your set up on 3 it's better to remove 2 so do this first)

To fix your profile, 1)Visit HERE and print off the instructions for managing profiles.

2) export your bookmarks to a html file. (you might want to export your passwords too)

3) clear your cache.. go to tools>>options>>privacy>> then click the clear private data settings button.. set it to clear cache, cookies, and pretty much everything else. Hit the clear private data button and close firefox.

4) Follow the instruction you printed off earlier delete all existing profile and create a new profile.

5) Import your bookmarks etc...

would love one,
