not to shabby considering the number of people that like like to rip on it and say how slow it is. 😀

I am liking FF less and less, I think I will reinstall. Sometimes if there is Flash on a page it will sit and not respond for a few sec then come back, very annoying.

Downloads <> quality or usage for that matter.

I have been using Firefox 4 since beta and I have found it to be reliable, secure and a speedy browser. What impressed me the most is that it is the same great browser with windows 7 and windows xp.

i just switched to it (from previous version of firefox). I like it overall, at some points there are some unexpected slowdowns. I like the "pin as app" tab functionality, the rest seems the same. i think the sync'd account thing seems like a neat idea, not sure if i'll use it though.

Yeah good. But the firefox crashes all the time, especially if you just leave the browser open. It doesn’t load webpages on the first click a lot of the time! It eats-up RAM and processor usage!!

Sounds like something wrong with your system, these symptoms are pre 2010 for any browser. Check for malware, and try reinstalling FF.

I like chrome as well but prefer firefox4 just a little bit more because I have always used it. Tried to like MSIE9 but it's not as good as firefox4 or chrome.

well nice to see people from Mozzila have such a success but i think they will need to implement in the sys requirements of their product
