Whenever you have any problems accessing FTP of Mozilla, change it to HTTP. :)

Something's really odd on my PC. Performs even worse than the last time, next only to Firefox 3.6. I think it's the Avast I've switched to.will see.....

Was using beta 9 and never had a crash with it. With beta 10 crashes are abundant. Firefox crashes every time now when I open one of my favorite websites.

Have no clue why Firefox beta 10 is crashing on my machine every time on the above website.

Firefox 4 has many many bugs unfixed. It's likely that you may have similar problems visiting other sites.

ANW, I noticed one thing, Firefox doesn't slow down at startup. :D

So today I installed the beta 10, finally and I must say, I like what they have done to it! The tabs are seeable now (use to be the same color as the titlebar is (when I unticked menu bar), which made the inactive tabs harder to see with the eye, now they've changed the tabs to grey), am loving that. Secondly I see that they have fixed the closing and recovering tab problem, when ever I wanted to recover a tab, it put me an other layer, a totally new window, so i had to click at the window icon at the right top corner and choose the previous tabs, which was REALLY annoying. And finally I must say, that the browser acts even faster, then in beta 9. Way to go, Mozilla! :) Am loving it!

(I'm using "Am loving it!" too often, ey? :P)

I don't know why, but nsane.down on Firefox has different look that on e.x Chrome. Top menu with "software news"' "Filesharing news" etc. has bolded font. It isnt't look nice imo, cos' this looks too heavy for whole site. On Chrome is OK.

Thank you sweetie! I swear I was having a problem with downloading the beta 10 portable verson from within the beta 9 portable version. Even at portableapps.com; which is always reliable.... oh well. Thanks again, Anurag! Happy testing, everyone! :) xoxo

That's probably related to the fonts they use. Check it out in Opera, it should be wide.

still freezes up on start-up

start up time hasn't changed from beta 9 to 10

this is by far the quickest release they promised to deliver , and they did

updated anyway .. let's see where are they going

Here is the benchmark (attached). Not bad. BTW, I was wrong about fonts. They didn't fix it. It looks much better now, but not yet as it should be.

Cheers ;)

That benchmark gives some relief to me. I'm yet to figure it out why it's scoring so badly at my end, it's higher only to 3.6. :( BTW, how many times did you test it for this result?

Looking at your font, they sure are blur, but not so blur at my end, infact, from my side, only a sharp eyed person will notice it at the first view.
