Finally got around to installing it, and Firefire is now back to being fast like the earlier versions. Another diff I've found is that sites load fully a lot faster. Example, when checking out threads, FF's little cirlce would spin for a long time (or never even stop sometimes), now it finishes in a split second

Must say I'm liking the automatic update feature of 1.5.x.x, mine just popped up stating that it had downloaded the new version, and was waiting on a restart. It then checked for compatibility with extensions.
Much better than having to download the full browser again. FK

I like the auto feature too, but I must admit I still download the file in case I want to go back to it or pass along a certain rev to others.

I didn't even know I was using the updated version. I'm definately all for this automatic update setup - it was a nuisance to visit mozilla.org on a regular basis to check out updates. Thanks TR.

Its the Dark Side!

Yeah, I rather enjoy the auto updates...Mainly because I tend to loose track of when Mozilla releases an update, and I realize it like a month afterwards (Not like thats a totally bad thing, its just sometimes with respect to some security holes, you'd want to patch them up sooner than later)
