Click on the Firefox button on the top left, go to options, then Toolbar Layout. From there, just drag and drop.

Also on Win7 64 bit, but haven't had either of those issues. Not sure what the problem is.

Oh nice. Any way to get the old progress status bar on the bottom?

Re: Firefox 4

So can those that have been using FF4 confirm that the JS execution is indeed much faster? I really have some slow loading with some website with FF 3.6.15. Also, does the plugin-container.exe still run in the background? That things really bugs me and sometimes gives me trouble. Thanks!

Not sure if spam.

I don't think it is, lol.

I know what he's talking about with that plugin-container ****. I had a lot of crashes from FF in the past that were because of that (or at least that's what it said), although just before this new version of FF came out I hadn't had any issues the past week or 2.

Re: Firefox 4

I've had a lot of issue with this FF4 which is making me not even want to try it no more. I had to uninstall McAfee Security Suite to stop my FF4 from freezing everytime I typed in a search. Now I'm having scrolling issues? I can't use my Touchpad to scroll, I have to use the scrollbar on the side of the web pages to scroll. I understand these things happen early on, but this is why most people just ship back to the old browser they were using because it worked and this new shiny faster browser for the time being isnt.

Re: Firefox 4

The only problems I've had aren't really problems.

I had to re install Java and restart my computer for it to work..no biggie.

I like it so far.

Re: Firefox 4

i was excited for this - skipped all the beta's because too many extensions weren't working. so finally upgraded yesterday - and it's a mess. not that FF3.5 was the most memory friendly app, but it was manageable (200-300MB) with 1 or 2 FF reboots a day. FF4 - ugh - 400-500MB of RAM in use after only 10-15 minutes of use. had it up to 750MB at one point.

i went through and uninstalled as many extensions as possible. still using too much memory. i should go back and do a clean profile and only install a bare minimum of extensions, but for now, i'm switching over to Chrome.

Re: Firefox 4

Well it worked for 2 days and now if I attempt to load anything it stops responding and I have to close Firefox and restart it. I cant take this much more before I just jump back to the previous version of Firefox I had and wash my hands of this "upgrade", if it isnt crashing its freezing so from where Im sitting, this thing is a complete joke.

[EnigmaNemesis]

Wonder what are the causes of some peoples problems on here.

I have yet to have any issues. It is running much better than 3 for me.

Smoother, faster, etc.

Re: Firefox 4

It runs good for me too, but there are issues where the URL bar at the bottom of the page when I hover over a link just sits in space. LOL! I just added a new theme so it seems to help with some of the other quirks I encountered before.

I sure wish I could figure out what was causing this problem. I cant stand jumping through hoops so Im about ready to just go and try out Chrome again as this just isnt working. Ive restarted my PC three times with no luck as it still freezes up the moment I try and load anything.

Finally got it to work again but had to uninstall it and install it all over again. Im dumbfounded, any ideas as to why a fresh install would fix whatever the problem was? I had another Windows update last night but surely that couldnt cause Firefox to go to **** all of a sudden could it?

Add me to the "been running FF4 with no issues" contingent.
