i don't understand why the brought out a major build, when everything is the same as FF4.

if they ignore the updates using minor release number we may get FF10 by the end of the year if they do this.

The update prompt comes up automatically...and if you don't want to update, you don't have to. This seems a lot better than the microsoft route; where IE updates install automatically, even if you set the updates to only install when you tell them to, they still install automatically...and half the time, they break the browser (not that it ever works correctly to begin with).

QUite funny really as I bet firefox team didn't think of this and don't really know what to do about it.

I have FF5 beta and some sites and things will or won't work, like a site that works fully under FF3 or 4 might have flash working but it won't let a script work within flash so the site breaks and it doesn't work.

Mozilla is still the best browser for me - for what I do on the web. That said; what infuriates me is that I no longer have access to the blocked cookies folder like before in tools>options.
Grrrrr!

I am an absolute loyal user of FF. I tried to use ff 4.0 but was uncomfortable - read did not have the time to go into details. FF 5 is better.

My only grouse is that a number of addons won't work until they are updated. Guess will just have to wait.
