Has anybody else downloaded it yet? I just did and it doesn't appear to be much different than firefox 4.0, other than once again there is no Iowa State Theme :sad: and that I'm no longer experiencing quite as many issues with Flash crashing while browsing certain websites (including CF).
 
And they leave add-ons in the lurch. I would have rather stayed at four. It seems i didnt have much of a choice......
 
I grabbed it.... not much different....
But I do have a Iowa state theme...
 
You really don't have much of a choice. They are not going to release security updates for 4.
 
I downloaded it and something got corrupted...I can't even open Firefox. Now I can't figure out how to wipe all the leftover firefox stuff clean to get the new version to even run. Any nerds out there?
 
Mozilla is on a 3 month release schedule now...I love Firefox!

NOTHING has changed. Absolutely nothing. They are just labeling minor updates as major updates, that is all. What is being called "5.0" previously would have been called 4.1 or something like that. This "5.0" update has VERY few changes, it is all a bunch of B.S.

The "3 month release schedule" is just a bunch of advertizing gimmickry. No developmental changes have been made.
 
My Firefox just suddenly stopped working. I updated my Adobe flash player but I don't know why that would have anything to do with it. I called my IT buddy and he said he uses Chrome so I downloaded it and it's great.

Give it a try
