I'll Stab Mozilla With a Spoon!

Seriously… Firefox is crashing. Often. And I'm not just talking a-

Yep, it crashed while typing it. The little hyphen denotes where it crashed while I was typing.

It can crash as often as 5-8 times in a single sitting of use - that can USUALLY range from 2-5 hours (with OR without breaks in between). This didn't happen with Firefox 3.x It crashed but not like this. It occasionally did.

Firefox 4 betas/release candidate(s)? Flawless. No problems at all.

Firefox 4? Nope. Go to your room and have a time out. BAD firefox. :(

Honestly? I'd rather not use Opera and DEFINITELY not Chrome (bad experience with both). I'm using……

wait for it…

wait for iiiit……

…..Internet Explorer 9.

Somehow I'm using it. And I'm liking it. I feel like I betraying a browser I've liked but… Until Mozilla get's their crap together I'm using IE for anything important enough to not have crash on me.

Anyone have any ideas? Firefox's IRC channels had no help (ignored or stupid ideas that didn't work) and posting on the forums yields replies on how people have these problems… but no solutions. :/

Hmm. Firefox 4 looks like it gets rid of folder bookmarks :/ I have a lot of links in folders….

Though it looks like theres also a page to organize bookmarks. Can anyone confirm this?

Eh? I don't think it does…

I still have plenty of bookmarks in folders, if that's what you mean… -_o

Woot! Upgraded to Firefox 4, and its great!

I think Internet Explorer 9 is now pretty good, but is really more for the casual internet user.

Yes, people who use web browsing for things other than simply checking email, Facebook, news, etc.
