Re: Firefox 3 Release Candidate 1 Now Available

For me both the Download Statusbar and Faviconize Tab are some I dont' want to live without. If you use google, the googlepreview is really awesome. I used to have it installed, not sure why I don't now.

Re: Firefox 3 Release Candidate 1 Now Available

Yay, now Apophis will join the dark side.

I already had Statusbar installed and had to live without it from Beta 2 through Beta 3. Was one of the first add-ons I had for FF 2.x.

I also added the Google preview thing. It's awesome. I've had plenty of searches where I go exploring and can only remember what the site looks like but not remember the page title or content. It's already helped me find several older bookmarks that I lost when I switched from FF2 to FF2 Beta.

Re: Firefox 3 Release Candidate 1 Now Available

I had planned on downloading today but the servers at http://www.mozilla.com/firefox seem to be dying under the strain.

EDIT: Hmm I got on the server but it is still showing FF2. FF3rc3 is available as a "sneak peek" though. I'll waiting until the correct links are updated.
