chevysoldier Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I used FF a little bit, didn't care much for it. Not sure why. Never tried Opera. I'm happy with Chrome. Does what I need.How does FF4 compare to Chrome? I might try it out depending on the reviews from people. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

granda080 Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I like FF4...haven't had any complaints thus far, little strange where tabs are located but seems to run well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disclaimer Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I don't notice much difference. It still freezes and hangs like FF3.6 did, but I guess that's what I get for only rocking 512MB of RAM on WinXP Home Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ReconRat Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I usually wait till the apps and plugins get upgraded to work with.I miss them if they aren't there. Hardly worth upgrading if they aren't available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meanie Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I just started running it on Friday, seems pretty decent. I haven't had any issues with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Butters Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 havent tried it yet....the one i have now runs flawlessly, and a ton faster than chrome and IE (on my computer at least)...i might DL FF4 to check it out though....i love FF, wont ever use another browser Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Butters Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 hmmm....upgraded....this new version of FF is pretty odd....definitely going to take some getting used to... the noscript button being at the top and the tabs being at the top are odd looking....but its nice how its setup, makes a huge difference in the amount of screen you can see since they ditched the status bar on the bottom and moved the tabs into the main bar at the top...its neat, i think ill keep it...just need to get used to it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaNick Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I installed it as soon as it said upgrade available. Nothing different than a few layout items I've seen. I never really care how I browse the web, I just like safety. I run windows XP and my shit never freezes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jarvismb Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 I've noticed some small improvements to flash-loaded sites, and some streaming improvements. YouTube is a slight improvement, but some of the other sites that have embedded video with more crap going on around them (ads & whatnot on wimp.com is an example), I tend to think it handles all of that a bit better than previously.As long as it loads redtube, I'm good though... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fonzie Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 Eh. I'd rate Firefox and Opera higher than Chrome.I used FF for years, but switched to Chrome from FF about 6mo's ago, as FF had gotten reeeally slow. Chrome was noticeably faster. Been happy since then Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LoTGoD Posted April 5, 2011 Report Share Posted April 5, 2011 You can move the location of the tabs and the home button. I have my layout just like FF3. Seems snappier and faster loading than FF3. FF5 will be out by the end of the year...possibly sooner according to the new release schedule from Mozilla. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Been happy since thensame here. I'm not all that techy so as long as I can get my email, forums, facebook and pr0n I'm happy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
