[QUOTE=Esherido;2344630]It seems to act exactly the same as the last release candidate. :|[/QUOTE] Pretty much yeahā€¦ Although to be honest, it hasnā€™t hogged as much memory as it usually does on osx : ) ---

Youā€™re right, it doesnā€™t seem to use as much memory. Even on Windows. ---

Liking it so far, feels snappier than FF2 and the new UI is pretty neat. Iā€™m also excited about the new ā€œAwesome Barā€, should help out a great deal in my plentiful moments of ā€œwhat the hell was that site again?ā€. Can anyone confirm that the Remove All button in the password manager asks for confirmation now? Iā€™ve had a bad experience with that in the past, and itā€™s just baffling to me how FF2 does not ask you for confirmation before deleting all of your stored passwords. Hopefully they fixed that now. ---

Thought so I just submitted three bug reports to bugzilla, 1. Maximize button in OS X does not freaking work. 2. "Open With ā€¦ " when downloading does not freaking work. 3. ā€œSave Page Asā€ or ā€œSave Image Asā€ dialog box highlights the freaking file extension ---
