Firefox 1.5

[loic2003]

Anyone find that there appear to be very few available search engines? In the previous version (0.8?) I had rottentomatoes.com, wikipedia, dictionary.com, ebay UK all in there but they're not available now, despite 1.5 having been out for quite some time.

Or is it just me?

Huh what does the browser have to do with the search engines?

Well if it were my website, I'd try to get an updated search engine widget within 24 hours of the new version going out. 1.5 has been out for a few weeks now, yet major websites havne't added the widgets and IMO are losing out on a lot of traffic because of it.

If your talking about the search box you know you can add more engines to it right?

Yeah I was going to the 'add more engines' link at the bottom which turns out to be a mistake.

Seriously, what's up with this? If I have a few windows open it shoots up to like 250MB memory use.

Yes for me its sites that have some music file playing or what not everyonce in awhile it crashes.

I've had a few - just haven't had enough time to play around with it. I've uninstalled most of my extensions, but still getting crashes and memory bloat.

I've had terrible problems with memory leaks.... FF is well over 200+ MB. I've uninstalled most of my extensions and it's better, but it still goes over 150+MB, but it doesn't happen as fast.

1.5 has some media problems, can crash after playing movies... for me anyway.

Hmm... 41mb for FF for me though... that sounds okay.

I am currently at 23mb with 1.0.7 and I've had it open for over an hour so far this morning at work.
