It would appear not only from my experience, but that on the discussion boards that there are some problems with FF 3.5.......especially if you are running Windows XP.
FF state that they will fix this later on in the month.
Blue *_*
PS. Initially it works, then fails to open later on. |

It may be an equatorial event, as it works well on my XP machine. |

'BugDay' Planned To Fix Bugs in New Firefox 3.5

A "BugDay" has been set for the Mozilla community to focus on bugs in the just-released Firefox 3.5 The bugs in FireFox 3.5 include longer load times, crashes linked to the TraceMonkey JavaScript engine, and Windows XP compatibility. Mozilla plans to release Firefox 3.5.1 with the bug fixes later this month.
Mozilla is scrambling to fix bugs in its just-released Firefox 3.5 browser. Users are posting complaints about problems across the Web.
Those problems include longer load times and crashes linked to the TraceMonkey JavaScript engine. The browser also reportedly has problems with Windows XP. Mozilla has set a community "BugDay" for July 7 to address the bugs in open-source Firefox 3.5.
Firefox 3.5.1 is expected to be released later this month to correct some of the 55 published bugs. Firefox 3.5 was released to the public on June 30, although a beta version was released in April. |

3.5 running fine on my XP box. It was pointed out to me when I questioned it's stability, that if you have problems before you download it....they will remain in the newer version... |

Interesting, I have had the opposite experience. Faster load times, and notice little problems with my XP laptop though I do use 2000Pro on my main Windows machine and the loading speed is twice as fast. I've downloaded it to my Linux machine but haven't installed it yet. But who cares, I know with Firefox one doesn't have to wait forever to get problems fixed and it ain't M$IE witch is a big bonus. Plus 3.5 has the lowest memory use of any browser. |
