Should You Download Firefox 15? - Comments Page 3

Don't look for me to download Firefox 15 anytime soon!

In other updates I have had frequent problems with the process going wrong - all my mail lost in Thunderbird, Bookmarks erased in Firefox, and so on. I've managed to defend my interests by only downloading about every third or fourth version of each, after carefully making copies of Mozbackup backups in a couple of different partitions. Even at that many aspects of the update and removal process have given me a hard time.

Ask me to trust them to meddle with my computer secretly without notice in the background? No thanks, I've been bit too many times for that.

And besides, my wife likes to borrow my computer on occasion, and 15 won't support Plain Old Favourites, which he considers vitl on my computer as well as he own.

Hi there.. I run Firfox, should I delete/dump my current version before I load #15 ? If the "old" stores so much information, should I do anything else to free up memory, apart from the things you have already told me to do, which I do religiously, thank you for that..

I've been using Firefox for several years, & have absolutely no complaints. Upgraded to FF 15 the day it showed up as an "upgrade" & have had no problems, & it runs fine...& quick. I'll stay with it.

Since Windows7, I also have not used Firefox for over a year, as Internet Explorer 9 is near perfect with this OS. I do have Chrome installed, and I'm happy with these two as a pick and choose combo.

I have used Foxfire 15 since it's release. I don't have any problems with it. I have had less problems with it that the previous versions of Firefox. In fact, so far I haven't had any problems. Currently I have Firefox 15 on two machines; one using Windows XP Professional (my main system) and the other system uses Windows 7. The Win XP System get far more use as it is my main system. The Win 7 System is used for specialized tasks. I have had to reboot neither system for problems related to Firefox 15 since I installed this NEW version.

I use Opera. Far better.

I'll use to Firefox.

At present I'm using Firefox 9 and I think I'll keep it that way.
In the past I upgraded various versions of Firefox, only to find that many of my programs weren't compatible with them and I'd to dump either the new Firefox or my trusty programs.
As I'd paid for most of the programs, Firefox went and was replaced with an earlier version that DID support my programs.
To be honest, because I'm not a techno-freak, and don't get the latest thing just for the sake of having it, (I still don't have a mobile-phone, i-pad, e-pad, x-pad, Brillo-pad, shin-pad, or any other damned pad you want to name, and I still use only one Dell desktop computer that's running on XP Home), so perhaps I'm not really missing anything with these new versions?
