I really haven't noticed a difference either. Don't get me wrong, I like Firefox but put me in the "meh" camp.

It also doesn't seem to play as well with work's firewall and despite my setting it to clear my private data when I close, it doesn't, nor does it appear to clear my private data when I manually command it to. Perhaps after a couple of days I'll be really wowed, but I currently remain tepid.
Try using Firefox in it's Safe Mode for a while and see if the problems still happen. If they go away then the problems is something in your extensions/settings. Start > All Programs > Mozilla Firefox > Firefox (Safe Mode). Oddly enough, I was coming here to post that I had done precisely that. Figured out I had an incompatible add-on. All is running smoothly now. I still remain unconvinced that it's miles ahead of the previous version, but at least I'm no longer mad for upgrading.

Great minds think alike. I still remain unconvinced that it's miles ahead of the previous version, but at least I'm no longer mad for upgrading.

Mehsquared.
Faster?
Kinda like the dude at grease monkey who said "this TRX-454 oil modulator additive will get you 3 more MPG and it won't cause friction to your flux capacitor.
Whatever...it's free and I'm away from the Gates teet (I think).

What's with it deleting my download list right after I download?
I have to go searching for the file instead of it being right there in the download window.

Works fine here, do you have it set to automatically delete it?

I did but only when it closed. I have since changed that and it still clears it immediately after the download completes.

Have you restarted Firefox since changing it? Try it in safe mode ( Start > All Programs > Mozilla Firefox > Firefox (Safe Mode) ) and see if it does it still.

How long has it been available as a beta? I can't live without that plug-in. For real. I'm uninstalling before I go back to work on Thursday (business trip Mon-Wed.)

Not exactly sure, I've used Firefox 3 in Beta and RC form for several months though. I can't live without that plug-in. For real. I'm uninstalling before I go back to work on Thursday (business trip Mon-Wed.)
Code a better one yourself instead.
