It seems no-one else has posted this yet, so just a heads up to say FF 4 final is out if you want to update/give it a try.![]()

I got it and its looking good so far.

Bugger, I knew I wouldn't be the first!
I did scan through the threads and didn't spot it though.
Been using it seen Beta, it's great![]()
Gotta a major problem with it on two of my (Windows 7 64-bit) systems in that it 'freezes' shortly after launching, is unresponsive to mouse clicks or keyboard shortcuts, and has to be terminated using the Task Manager.
Odd, because it behaves nicely on two other Windows 7 64-bit systems, and they are all fully updated and have the latest stable versions of Flash and Shockwave Player.
Their whole suite is a bloated mess, consider Kaspersky or ESET when the license expires. Even a free AV like MSE is better than that. I'll admit I've been out of the loop for a while but when I was last reading into all that, Macafee was one of the worst ones out there, in terms of resources, detection rate, etc - even Norton has gotten better now.
Ah, well I suppose it's a fair deal then. But personally I'd rather use something lightweight and free like MSE.
So what does everyone actually think? Personally (and on my kind of old computer) it seems a bit clunky and slow. It does nothing that Opera (my primary browser) can't do. Bit disappointed to be honest!
Firefox 4 certainly looks really functional now and seems as fast as Chrome. However I'm so into Chrome now that I don't think I can switch.

I definitely think it is a lot better now, been a FF fan for years and it's a step in the right direction!
