What does FF3 give you? Not much, IMHO, except some little (or not so little) annoying glitches:

I changed over to 3 on one computer several weeks ago, and will NOT do so on the other - unless they get that location bar issue sorted out, and the download history which is deleted every time I delete my private data, etc.etc. Much less ways to tweak FF the way YOU want it. Lots of community complaints and Bugzilla entries along the lines of "if I wanted MS IE I would have got MS IE".

I sincerely hope that with 3.1 they get it right - I was a FF2 fan.

Whilst on't subject - I have managed to get a reasonable sized search bar via CSS instead of the squitty little one but HOW do I get the option (in Google) to search the various fields they offer, eg Images, Maps, News etc?

When I started this thread I was downloading Firefox 2.0.0.20 and I am still downloading it! Either it is the mother of all downloads in size or its got stuck.:eek:

FF 2 still working ok though.

You just type in your search and click on Images etc on the google results page....
Why would you need a bigger search bar?? There is no restriction on what you can type into the standard one...
I have 12 search engine options in the search bar including google....

I think that many of the problems people have is more to do with their systems than FF otherwise we would all have problems.....
