Is it just me Firefox 3?
Is it just me or is everyone having problems with Firefox 3 crashing often? Don’t get me wrong, I love it… but, it keeps crashing… on many different machines.
Actually, several of my staff users have reverted back to IE. Yuck. I’m still hanging in there Firefox. I won’t give up on you. I’m just a bit disheartened by clicking “Send Report” so often.

I got the same problem. Like you I plan to ride it out. I don’t think I could return to IE. Every time I have to use it on someone’s PC I feel like I’ve drifted back 5 years in history.

I’ve been using FF3 since it came out and haven’t experienced one crash yet. I’m only running the web developer toolbar and firebug though.

I’m impressed by the Mozilla crew for being on top of posts made on the Web. Shortly after posting about my problem, they Tweeted me up:

Still, it’s not the add-ons. I’m having issues on a clean install with no add-ons at all.
@Jon I’m with you. It is like drifting back in history to a time where tumbleweeds ruled the Web and Clint Eastwood pops up on your screen saying, “Go ahead, make my day.”
@Taylor You are lucky, or maybe normal. I have literally had the problem on 10 different machines at work. My home computer doesn’t though. Interesting.

It doesn’t crash (much) on me, but I do have a problem with it forgetting my toolbar customization. The back/forward buttons keep disappearing, and I have to constantly ‘Restore Default Set’ and start over. It only takes a minute or so each time, but those minutes add up!

Two machines. No crashes…..yet. (and I don’t necessarily mind IE7)
