I used 2.x as long as I could, and Flash content ran smoothly, but Firefox 3 totally bogged everything down and screwed up my extensions. What has your experience with 3.x been?

I switched on my laptop because I have limited addons on it and haven't had any issues with it actually think it is faster but 2 of my addons haven't updated yet. I am very scared to update on my desktop as I have something like 80 extensions and I figure it will be a while before most of them update. I really hated the new GUI at fist but have grown to like it. I just kind of wish that FFox gave me the option to have multi-row tabs so I don't have to wait for tabsmixplus to update.

Hi T3hG33k, I don't think Tabmix plus will still update as most of its features I used before in FF2 are already built-in to FF3, the only missing I know off is the duplicate tab, and flashy page load status.

! Would you know where these options are located under toolsoptionstabs there are only 5 different options. Is there another spot that these features are located?

I had a problem with YouTube when I first installed FF3, it keeps on asking to install the Flash plugin when I already did. I even ask this to one discussion here. But I discovered that the problem lies with my no-script addon. I have to allow 3 script to run a video. And when it did FF3 plays better video than my FF2, i just played one in both.

Yeah, I tried using the No-Script extension, but I got way too annoyed with the constant nagging of whether or not to allow content on various sites, so I gave it up and simply allowed everything. I'm waiting for AdBlock to work properly with version 3.
