Firefox 3.5 is a buggy pile of ass compared to 3.0, not impressed.

Indeed, I've noticed a slight improvement from the update in the past few days (3.5.2). I won't even consider changing browser though due to Safari, IEs and Opera's "badness" and Google Chromes slow support for add-ons and lack of features.

He's waiting till sp1 before getting win7

So what's the verdict, should I be downloading this or not? And if I do, how do I turn off the image corrector thing Matt pointed out (I believe he said the older version prevented it automatically correcting them but this 3.5 allows it)?

Don't download it, get it in a month or two when it is more secure. It has already had two updates in a short time which means there are many holes to come probably.

Also the reason why FF before 3.5.1 was slow is because it was creating temporary folders for pseudo-random data for encryption e.t.c.

I'm using Firefox 3.5.2 and haven't had any problems so far.

Same - slow boot was windows issue only. Plus 3.5 is more secure than 3, not less o.0

Aye, I'm another using 3.5.2 and have had no problems at all so far.

Ahh, I wondered if it was a wide spread problem (the slow booting). It took ages for Firefox to open :/ Also, what's this about audio/video tags? It's not been clear to me what it does :/
