ART Posted 11 October, 2012 Posted 11 October, 2012 If any of you has upgraded to the latest version of Firefox 1`6 then please remove and read this article. Firefox have removed the new version and one should downgrade to Firefox 15.01 http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/technology-19909106
Ohio Saint Posted 11 October, 2012 Posted 11 October, 2012 I already had to downgrade because it wouldn't play video properly.
Sheaf Saint Posted 11 October, 2012 Posted 11 October, 2012 I've stopped using Firefox anyway because I've found the recent versions of it to be even slower than IE and it crashes a lot. Use Chrome now - much better.

Use Chrome now - much better. Yeah, Chrome is the fastest. I have to use Firefox for work though, because i have to use a lot of the widgets. The plug-ins are what makes FF different.
Saint_clark Posted 11 October, 2012 Posted 11 October, 2012 I wasn't even given the option to update, still on 15.01.
ART Posted 11 October, 2012 Author Posted 11 October, 2012 Fixed Firefox version 16.01 has just been put online to download at this address. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/
S-Clarke Posted 12 October, 2012 Posted 12 October, 2012 Used to be pretty loyal to firefox, but it's recent additions have been abysmal. Constant crashing, flash errors, the works. Now on chrome. Doubt i'll be going back.

Doubt i'll be going back. I use both but you would do well downloading and using Portable Firefox and Google. They work wonderfully and are completely independent of you hard disk and files. Give this website a go. They are the championds of Portable applications. You can download to didk, to another disk or to a USB finger key.. And no risk to the rest of your computer. Grest to watch TV online without getting infected. Just as fast too. http://portableapps.com/
alpine_saint Posted 14 October, 2012 Posted 14 October, 2012 Fixed Firefox version 16.01 has just been put online to download at this address. http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/new/ 16.01 is safe then ? Because my bloody PC has just automatically updated to it. Seriously thinking about switching to Chrome.
1885 Posted 14 October, 2012 Posted 14 October, 2012 If you think about switching to Chrome, just write all your internet habits + private information on a piece of paper, put it in an envelope and send it straight to Google. It's faster than using Chrome, but the result is the same.
