Firefox 4 is now available.

For those who don't know, Firefox 4 has officially released.

http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/fx/

I downloaded it, and I think it's amazing. It's very fast. What do you think about it?

Is it bad/sluggish/a memory hog like the beta?

Immediately after I installed it, it crashed when I tried to move the buttons around on the menu bar.

NOT A GOOD START!

(It was a 100% fresh install. No add-ons or nothing. No previous versions were on my machine either.)

I went right back to Chrome!

It immediately replaced Chrome as my secondary browser. :)

Oh nice, forgot about it.

I hope it's better than the last beta.

Been using ChromPlus as my main. I already have Firefox as a secondary. will it update itself next time I fire it up, or is this completely separate?

I'm liking it better so far. It looks better, but not confusing like what they did to youtube.

It depends on your update settings. If you have it set to update automatically, then it will update automatically I presume.

Yep, I had a squint at my settings and automatic updates are ticked. Hasn't updated to 4, though. I guess I'll have to do it manually. Can't be bothered right now.

Hmm, wonder if this will fix the problem I'm having with gifs.
Using the nightly build (slightly older version) and it grinds to a halt when I view too many gifs (a page full of emoticons, for example)

I dislike how Mozilla simply copied Google by having the URL appear in the bottom left corner when hovering the cursor over a link. Having it appear in the address bar like in the one of the betas was a pretty cool idea in my humble opinion.

I downloaded chatzilla, where do I go to access it on FF4?

Eh, you can only lead a horse to water.

Hmmm...it appears I can't update and I have to download an entirely new browser. What happens to my addons?

Oh, I thought you were making a sarcastic jab at Firefox's incompatibility w/ chatzilla. Anyway, FF 4.0 is compatible w/ chatzilla. (I think) Right click on the home button and there should be a drop down menu. Click "customize" and drag the chatzilla icon onto the menu bar. Instant access.

wolo I flirt between Firefox and Chrome

That worked though, thanks =D

I am using it right now, and I am loving it.

Xp users are a super race. No reason to 'upgrade' to yucky 7.

I'm posting this from Mozilla 4. Seems pretty nice so far.

My Xp is from 2002. Xp was so well made there is no reason to upgrade to 7. At least not until they've fixed all the bugs.

I would guess not, but it's closer to perfection then 7.

Not awful at all. That's why it's bad that the FF4 beta ran so badly on it. I switched to Chrome afterwards and never looked back.

7 is MUCH better than Xp and I have have had far fewer issues with it than I had with XP. Let go, we're already at SP1 of 7 so any bugs are pretty much fixed.

Awesome, downloading now.

Edit: I like it. Tabs on top keeps me from accidentally clicking a bookmark instead of a tab. App tabs are sorta neat, and tab groups will be nice. Also looks sleek.

Hmmm... >Opens Firefox >Browses a bit >Is liking >Ctrl+Shift+P >"Would you like to start Private Browsing? Firefox will save your current tabs for when you are done with your Private Browsing session." >Presses cancel >Uninstalls Firefox Until the Mozilla corporation adds the ability to browse normally and use private browsing at the same time, I will continue using Google Chrome as primary browser with Opera as my secondary browser.GHlegend77

Um...just go into privacy and set FireFox so it doesn't remember your history.

Also, Chrome sends all your browsing info back to Mother Google, regardless of whether your incognito or not. This is why I use ChromePlus.
