Cool. I've just gotten into using Firefox and am enjoying it a lot. :01:
I had problems withe 1.0 preview, hope they are resolved in the final release
I'll leave it a few days then...
At least until the 9th

That's odd, seeing as it's now 1 hour after the time that applet originally said FF would go final.
I guess that's what I get for having faith in a frickin' flash file. :rolleyes:
i can't wait
Uninstall the old version first in the usual manner, then install 1.0 to the same directory the old version was in.Quote:

Oh.. btw, that flash applet is now showing time in the negative for me...

...but 1.0PR is still all thats on offer from the download site.
So in an effort to redeem myself, I went sniffing around the Mozillazine forum for a release time, and this looks like the best guess so far:
http://forums.mozillazine.org/viewto...=936244#936244
...and Ben Goodger (FF's lead developer) is shooting for an early morning release, by the look of it.
http://weblogs.mozillazine.org/ben/archives/006872.html
Ben's timezone is Pacific Standard Time: GMT -8
Mozilla HQ is in California. So unless you live on the west coast of the US, I'd ignore that timer.
It's wrong in other timezones.
u guys might wanna check out wat mozillaZine has to say as of the time i post this
firefox 1.0 seems to be already available in their ftp server. but i dun see the firefox homepage updated in any way to include it.
edit: to ignite the downloading frenzy here in FileSharing Talk...i include this link
(not necessary anymore)
edit again: a few minutes after i post the supposed link in the edit above...the official website has finally included the official link to 1.0!!! GO DOWNLOAD NOW!!!

Thanks gildan. :)
Downloaded it, but damn... that server must be getting slammed!
I only got 2.5K/sec using Flashget, and it had to retry 13 times. :blink:
That sucks even for dialup. :lol:
Now lets see what we have here..
brb
lol - i always give it a couple of days - their servers cant cope with new versions :D
Yup.. it's a good'n... but I'm already missing the Px Classic theme... it's creator hasn't updated it for 1.0 yet.
And NONE of the old extensions are compatible either.. so I got a pile of updating to do. :rolleyes:
But damn... it's loading pages faster than ever. Didn't think that was possible. :ohmy:
Agreed No old extensions are working......
agreed it faster
edit: updated all necessary extensions
it is faster:01:
i got extensions from here - http://extensionroom.mozdev.org/

for those who are not aware that this is an alternative browser to IE, go try it
Firefox
it's now ready for the masses :)
gildan2020
wow they must be super busy this today. I can't even access the site! :ohmy:
it's been loading for like 5 mins now.
Make Firefox FASTER ;)
Type "about:config" in your FireFox address bar. The settings you're looking for are:
1.) network.http.pipelining
2.) network.http.pipelining.firstrequest
3.) network.http.pipelining.maxrequests
4.) network.http.proxy.pipelining
Set #1, #2, and #4 to "true". Set #3 to a high number, I have 12.
Does that apply to all pcs? what speed does your isp have?Quote:
