- jjpertusch, on 04/02/2008, -9/+252it lets nerds write comments about it on every browser related article
- pintomp3, on 04/02/2008, -3/+171nooooooooo... adblock isn't updated yet. i never realized digg had so many ads.
- xAPx, on 04/02/2008, -12/+169F.Y.I. Adblock isn't yet compatible. They are usually on it so hopefully it won't be too long.
- jcannonb, on 04/02/2008, -0/+107I run FF3 on Mac OS X, Linux (FC9) and Windows. Was using Safari, but when FF3 beta came out, the streamlined UI to make it blend in with the given OS you are on simply sold me. The speed enhancements are amazing too. I love what FF has done!!!
- bjgpp, on 04/02/2008, -3/+101Pr0n still works great...it's safe to update
- seldon452, on 04/02/2008, -2/+93I didn't download this yet but on all the other betas digg dose not stop loading. Am I the only one who gets this?
- natmaster, on 04/02/2008, -11/+9671/100 on the Acid3 test. http://acid3.acidtests.org/
- DaveMN, on 04/02/2008, -3/+72Working fine for me after turning off compatibility checking:

- PueSi, on 04/02/2008, -2/+62FF3 since beta 3 feels so stable and fast that if it wasn't for the title bar, you wouldn't know it's a beta. Not even ONE crash since it was released (beta 3).
FF2 feels so slow and ***** now, it's not even funny. - m1zl3d, on 04/02/2008, -13/+70They remove my home button! How am I suppose to get Home now? D:
- schizogony, on 04/02/2008, -3/+59What exactly does this test do?
- init100, on 04/02/2008, -2/+47Even IE8 Beta gets a ridiculously low Acid3 score, 18/100. The Microsoft IE team should be ashamed of themselves.
- init100, on 04/02/2008, -4/+48Test Javascript specification compliance.
- init100, on 04/02/2008, -0/+43Beta 4 scored 68/100.
- SQLserver, on 04/02/2008, -4/+45Hell of a lot better then IE 7's 12.
And I believe they have passed the Acid2 test. - mooninite, on 04/02/2008, -3/+43Switch to Adblock Plus, which is 100% compatible with Firefox 3. The original Adblock is done; no more updates.
- Philluminati, on 04/02/2008, -1/+37I only installed beta 4 like 10 minutes ago. :-(
It's faster though, it makes a difference to loading the comments page. - j1ggy, on 04/02/2008, -1/+32Call a cab.
- inactive, on 04/02/2008, -2/+31We're all developers!
- RoboDonut, on 04/02/2008, -0/+2612?
When I tried it I only got 5.
What version are you using? - kbrosnan, on 04/02/2008, -0/+25It is not something that voting for the bug will fix.*There is nothing for Firefox to fix.* Digg and the advertisers on Digg need to fix a server setting.
- Tyr7BE, on 04/02/2008, -2/+27Yeah it's a HUGE improvement over FF2 on OS X. Actually a very decent browser, snappier than Camino. I've switched to using it full time on my iBook G4, a machine which could _barely_ run FF2. Works like a champ.
- G-RaZoR, on 04/02/2008, -0/+25Q4 2010.
- sint4x, on 04/02/2008, -0/+24I initially got 5, but if you wait a few seconds it jumps to 12.
- TGDuff, on 04/02/2008, -0/+22Autohiding toolbars in fullscreen mode FTW
- mdew, on 04/02/2008, -0/+21Adblock plus devbuilds for Firefox 3: http://adblockplus.org/devbuilds/
- havaloc, on 04/02/2008, -0/+21I wish the spinner/throbber would stop spinning on Digg all the time. Not fixed in this beta.

You get the idea. - aladrin, on 04/02/2008, -0/+21Don't forget that some of the bug/stability fixes might also improve the Acid3 score as well. Just because it increases doesn't mean they were paying attention to it.
- inactive, on 04/02/2008, -2/+22hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahaha no
- mooninite, on 04/02/2008, -1/+21Argh, I take back what I said. Adblock Plus is only set as compatible up to beta 4. I doubt the jump to beta 5 put in any incompatibilities, but I'm sure the Plus version will update soon. The original version won't.
- natmaster, on 04/02/2008, -3/+22No: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=40356 ...
Vote for the bug if you want it fixed. - init100, on 04/02/2008, -1/+19It is msn.com's fault. When using NoScript and disallowing scripts for msn.com, it works fine.
- 1n4007, on 04/02/2008, -0/+17Adblock Plus doesn't work anymore, but the dev version does ( http://adblockplus.org/devbuilds/adblockplus-0.7.5 ... )
- daizaru, on 04/02/2008, -0/+16Thanks for that!
- Petronski, on 04/03/2008, -0/+16What version of WHINE are you using?
- inactive, on 04/02/2008, -0/+15diggs fault for using faulty websites like msn
- m1zl3d, on 04/02/2008, -1/+15Same happens for me. It shows that it is still "loading" even though the page is done loading.
Quick check and it still does that in Beta 5. - MrOdwin, on 04/02/2008, -0/+14Help>Check for Updates...
- TheWindBlows, on 04/02/2008, -1/+15Its an advertisement that keeps going because it doesn't like the firefox 3 User Agent.
Best you can do is complain to Digg or its advertisers mainly microsoft. - 4DFX, on 04/02/2008, -0/+13I love how it smoothly loads a Digg article with 500+ comments!
- ElBeh, on 04/03/2008, -0/+13No, they've been saying they'd have five betas in total ever since B2 was released. It's not Mozilla's fault you cannot read.
- rye425, on 04/03/2008, -2/+15LOL!!! the first is what i got for firefox and the second IE7 (btw letting that activx thingy run did not fix it)
FIREFOX http://aycu29.webshots.com/image/50988/20024462488 ...
IE7 http://aycu15.webshots.com/image/50854/20024843108 ... - Shananra, on 04/02/2008, -0/+12It looked to me like he was suggesting that Mozilla is more concerned about stability for the time being. Priorities.
- m1zl3d, on 04/02/2008, -2/+14Never mind I fixed it. This did the trick for me: View -> Toolbars -> Customize
Now if only Web Developer Toolbar and Adblock will update! - runep, on 04/03/2008, -2/+13Verbing "beachball" is perfectly cromulent.
- corde5, on 04/02/2008, -5/+16I believe it scores the same as Beta 4 did. That's good, because it shows they're working toward a stable build instead of increasing the likeliness of new regressions.
- speaker219, on 04/03/2008, -0/+10I just force it to work the old fashioned way. Here is Adblock plus that works with ff3b5:
http://sp219.k4r1m.com/adblock-plus-firefox3b5.htm ...
You may need to save the file, and drag it into the "add-ons" dialog manually, if it doesn't prompt you to install.
All you have to do is change this line:
3.0b5pre
to
3.0b5
But i've already done that for you :) - tehrob, on 04/02/2008, -2/+12On my mac, the acid test always beachballs from 54 to 71, I wish they would fix that, as I suspect it is the same thing that beachballs Firefox at other times while browsing.
