When I upgraded to version 3 firefox I tried to use it and all my passwords were gone. Every web site that was listed was gone and the passwords were trashed. This completely screws everything up for me since there never was a backup program for that info. My message to anyone is DON"T DO THIS UPGRADE WITHOUT MANUALLY RECORDING ALL THE PASSWORDS AND WEB SITES YOU ARE GOING TO LOSE.

I am using Firefox 3.0.3 with Mac OS 10.5.5 can not download PDF files. Looked into Firefox/preferences/applications and don't see PDF in the Content Type field. How can I add PDF to the Content Type field??

updated from FF2 to FF3 and now when I click on Icon, FF does not open at all! Is there something I need to do in the settings somewhere? Please help...

EDITOR'S NOTE: That's definitely not right. Try re-installing FF.

I have been using FF 3.5 for some time with both XP Pro and Ubuntu 9.04 with no problems all over the internet.
The only problem that I had was connecting with ATT DSL. They kept telling me that they didn't support FF or TB until I pointed out that they had a web page with all the settings to go into the programs.
I have another computer that I have installed Ubuntu 9.04 in and as soon as I can find out how to get it connected to my 2wire gateway I'll be using FF 3.5 and TB 2.0.0 on that one too.

EDITOR'S NOTE: When an ISP says they don't "support" this browser or that email program, they really being a little silly. What they really mean is "here are the settings that will make our service work with Internet Explorer and Outlook Express. If you use a different browser or mailer, you'll have to figure it out for yourself." If you find an ISP that truly doesn't allow alternate browsers, RUN AWAY.

I've been using IE8 since April. But two sites display the text all garbled. I installed Firefox 3.5 and all was well, at least for a few hours. Then suddenly (and without warning) it displayed the same sites garbled.
I'm using Vista Home Premium with Norton 360 on a Toshiba Laptop P200.
I've uinstalled IE8 and IE7 displayed the same way. I reinstalled and the same problem.
I'm presently using Opera 10.0 and this browser is displaying perfectly. Any idea as to what is happening or causing this problem?
