Help
I like the new features but I am not very happy with all the crashes I keep getting. I am using FF3 on a WinXP machine.
FF3 - first impressions?

For me FF3 on Win XP, crash, crash, crash!
On Linux, after a shaky start, perfect

really? I have a friend who has ff3 on linux and he says the way it work it slows stuff down so much. I don't get how your FF3 is so buggy on Windows. Xp or Vista?

When I first used FF3 on Linux I was running Ubuntu 8.04 and it was quite buggy.
I've since started to use Fedora 9 and FF3 is lightning fast, as it should be.
On my XP machine however, it is slow and clunky, crashing constantly. Most of the time on XP, I use Opera instead.

Some of my plugins no longer work (Like Fasterfox or Foxy Proxy), but apart from that nothing to write home about. It is quicker and less buggy on my rig.
