http://lime-anime.com/torrent.html Try and download one the torrents and tell me if you get a different download window than normal in FireFox 2. It didn't do this in 1.5. I've come across a few other sites which are doing the same thing. This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
hmmm now I see, yeah I have the same problem.. so it's either that website of firefox 2.0 ...

Hmm, this may seem trivial given the questions asked here, but does the word search have the "find next" option? I've been using 2.0 for a while now and it simply finds the word, with no other options.
If there's no way of getting what was there in 1.5, I may have to go back. Spell check is nice, but the search was much better before. I was speaking idiomatically. The text is part of the image and the two squires aren't exactly even. |
Well I'm using Firefox 1.5.0.7 and when I click on torrent links they pop up the ol' save dialog box and everything is honky dory. However, I know what you're talking about. When you suddenly get a new page full of gibberish code instead of the save dialog box. I hate that. All you have to do for that is right click and save as.
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
You mean this?
Torrent links work fine for me. It might depend on how the website has it MIME types set though, I'm not sure. FELIPE NO |
I like how Firefox restores all the tabs on restart if the browser/computer crashes. Saves me the trouble of reopening all those windows.

With a bit of tweaking, Firefox 2.0 is allright. I've fixed all of the annoying UI changes they've made - the close buttons for each tab, the list all tabs button, the minimum tab width = 100 pixels etc. It looks like Firefox 1.5 right now and I like it that way.
The most annoying of the new features is the zoom cursor over large images, regardless if the image is resized or not. I can set Firefox to load images in their right(extremely large, for example) size, but I cannot disable the zoom tool. I want big pictures and I want a regular cursor damnit I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
God people, if you're going to do everything you can to make Firefox 2.0 act like 1.5, uh, why the fuck did you upgrade then?
I was speaking idiomatically. |
Geez, first they had an extension to add in those close buttons, now they have extensions to remove them, just can't fucking win. I hate my middle mouse button because it's a scroll wheel. I use it for that, not for the middle button, just can't remember to use it. Besides, if ever I am stuck with just the touchpad, only 2 buttons, so yeah.
I've yet to have a single issue with Firefox 2.0, I've been using the beta of it for a while, no freezing issues, no memory leaks, no shaking of stuff, and quite honestly, any UI stuff they changed up I don't mind. Yeah it's not perfect, but it never will be, because what works for some people, doesn't work for others.
I suppose there will be some stuff I'll change when I get around to customizing it and whatnot, but from what I've noticed, it's fastest firefox release that I've used to this point in time, and well yeah. Then again on the other hand, I never had serious issues with firefox to begin with. It just works, and works well. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?
Hatred on the fact that I lost my old sig, maybe I'll get it back someday. Or not!

Just by chance I stumbled across this thread. I was at the end of my rope with Firefox 1.5 because my experience with it is that it's the most unstable trash I've had the displeasure of using. 2.0 seems to be running much better. I mean I can browse for 10 minutes and not get that, "Firefox has encountered a serious error LOL" dialog box effectively fucking up my downloads in the process and losing all my tabs I had. Useless crap. Thank you for a working version this time.
I was this close to going back to IE. At least it works. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? You're staring at me like I just asked you what the fucking square root of something. |
MAYBE, JUST MAYBE, FIREFOX 2.0 HAS CHANGES THAT ARE NOT RELATED TO THE INTERFACE Jam it back in, in the dark. |
I wonder how many people even know of those changes.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
After lurking around for a while, checking on people's reactions, I'm now installing 2.0. Reporting soon.
edit: Installed. The theme is really close to what I used, I already had the close tab button extension and almost all my extensions work. Absolutely no problems to report so far.
Ever thought the problem could be coming from your "unstable trash" system? This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Okay, I'm dying here without my Tabbrowser Extensions (that's the name of the extension) and it doesn't look like it will be updated for 2.0 any time soon. Anyone have a good alternative to this extension that is working under 2.0? I'm mostly looking for the ability to be able to set tab actions where opening a bookmark, entering a URL in the address bar or displaying a search result will automatically open a new tab rather than being opened in the current tab.

Tab Mix Plus is quite decent. I linked the dev version of it (which already works with FF2) a while back in this thread.

Does anyone know if there is an extention for firefox 2 that will let you mouse over a tab and auto select it after a certain amount of time? With 1.5 there was an extention called Tab Mix Plus, that let you do that as well as a bunch of other little things like have the download window open in a tab. I just got used to these things, and when I switched to 2.0 I couldn't handle not having them. Anyone got any suggestions?

In my short few days of using Firefox 2, I noticed that the program freezed up. A FUCKING lot. Almost every freeze was caused by popups, whether they slipped through my anti-spyware or were manually opened because they contained download links from sites. Finally, the frequent freezing was enough (and I didn't like the new tab manager either) so I went back to 1.5.0.7...

Tab Mix Plus wasn't updated for 2.0, or at least it hasn't been yet. Double Post: Also, there is no Imageshack Right-Click extention was I used to use ALL the time. So far 2.0 is just like 1.5 but with not as many/good extentions. There's nowhere I can't reach.
