WTF is wrong with Firefox 3.5.2?

[El Comandante]

I have been having terrible connection issues with this version of Firefox.

One out of every 6 pages or so will not load properly in Firefox (server not found). I have to hit the reload button to get it to load. It also seems slower than previous releases and some flash movies seem to stutter. I have never had a problem with Firefox and I love it but this shit is driving me to distraction. I have tried everything.... uninstall/reinstall, delete profile, load in safe mode, remove add on programs one at a time ect... nothing.

This is definitely a software problem. A search has reveled widespread bugs with this version and claims that there is a DNS problem with this version... (or is it just me?) Are you guys having any of these problems? :confused:

Maybe this is my problem too. I have had tons of connection problems myself but thought it was charter. Lots of problems with youtube vids though...

I've been using it but on a secondary computer, and it's been okay there, and I like the support for Open Video - that's pretty exciting.

If there's a bug as big as that they should send out an update soon. I'll have to check the Mozilla bug list to see what's up.

I have a problem w/ 3.5whatever not letting me use my Norton identity safe plug in.

Though, at first, found out that Norton was 2 versions behind. Got that updated, applied a hotfix, still nothing.


Gay.

shit... Chrome is ok but I would rather Moz get their shit together... my internet experience is seriously being degraded...

I switched to Opera a while ago because I found FF slow and haven't looked back. I do like it better than Chrome, as it uses far less system resources. However, I do still occasionally use FF. I find it a bit faster since disabling the Microsoft .Net Framework Assistant.

An update 3.5.3 is out. Lets hope they have cleaned up the mess.

I did notice my norton plug-ins are working again.

Finally.

since updating to 3.5.3 i've noticed a few quirks...for some reason my fire gestures addon keeps crashing, and even when i close fire fox now, it's process keeps running in the background. i have to manually kill the process in task manager. anyone have any info on this?

I solved a lot of my problems by updating Java and Flash. .. in case anyone cares...

I think FF has sucked since the second update about two years ago and don't know why I haven't tried Opera yet, except that perhaps it's for Macs? I don't remember.

And to El C, you know we care (and if they don't, oh well.)! http://i95.photobucket.com/albums/l153/shell63/kisscx8.gif ~::*MUAH!*::~

theres a tweak on the mozilla forums to make your FF faster.
