I for one hate the new firefox 3 :(
I hate the way the navigation bar gives ALL my history, and I can't get around the fact that this new one isn't that different from ver 2...

It's annoying me to pieces now that my history come up, not just the sites I type in the bar.


Oh, ya, I forgot to mention that when I tried to revert back to version 2, I couldn't use the dam browser, It just would not work :(
 
that history in the search bar is one of the things i've always loved about ff
 
Love it. Way faster!
Only thing I dont like is that a lot of my add ons dont work
 
Loving the new location bar. :) Great version overall.

Got a dodgy browsing history? :D You can always delete private data or set it to only show a few days history.
 
FF3's a lot faster. as for the pluugins not working.. some, like greasemonkey you ave to update as well
 
The OS X skin for Mac version works perfectly on windows - dunno why they say its for mac only... :)))
installed something called piclens - also a damn nice plugin...
 
if you hate FF may i suggest that you join the Opera 9.5 club! ;)

I kinda know what you mean. Its annoying me because it takes me longer to find what I'm looking for in this new list, since there is now so much extra stuff there + the title are now also there. I'm sure I'll get used to it though.

Perhaps setting "Keep my history for X days" to 1 day would help? My plan is just to get used to it.:o

Remove all FF versions from the PC and then install the one you want.

Scotty just shot himself in the foot. :D
 
This might be of some help on FF3. Set value to 0.

1) Enter about:config into the address bar and hit Enter.
2) Press the "I''ll be carefull. I promise!" button. (Because you will be.)
3) Enter browser.urlbar.maxRichResults in the Filter field to reach this preference.
4) Set it to your desired number of suggestions.

There is also a way to turn your bar back into the ff2 style. Just Google it. I have seen people talking about it.
