Beware of Firefox 1.5.0.6

FYI – I have had big problems with the stability of Firefox 1.5.0.6 so I would think twice before upgrading… My symptoms are crashing of the browser, big memory usage and general slowness…

  1. afak, big memory usage is how Firefox always behaves. is it perchance an extension going berserk?
    I run TalkBack, FlashGot, Image Zoom, Adblock, GreaseMonkey, IE View, Adblock Filterset.G updater, Full Screen, DOM Inspector

  2. What?! Why aren’t you using Firefox 2? It’s been out for almost a year!

    I used 1.5 for almost a month after 2 came out, citing stability reasons, but THERE IS ABSOLUTELY NO REASON NOT TO MOVE TO FF 2.
